An inaccurate accusation of fan-boyism is not legitimate response to a question that asks you to back up your statement that the iPhone has lost significant market share to the Droid phone. Nice attempt at deflection, but the questions remain. An additional one is how the Droid will do after a year of competing with the iPhone on the same network, but given your unwillingness or inability to answer the previous two questions, I rather doubt you will attempt this one either.

>> The question that you should be asking is, "Why is iPhone losing share?" << Except that iPhone isn't losing share, according to the latest numbers. techcrunch.com Android is gaining market share, but so is iPhone. One difference between the two platforms is that at present, manufacturing capacity is still limiting iPhone sales. I also note, from your graph, that 14% of Android users plan to abandon that platform for iOS with their next purchase, while only 7% of Apple users are considering making the switch to Android.
