The rest of the world gets to name the Y Axis also, its not just America - If you are correct - the American author screwed up and a gullible American fanboy posted bad data. See the scale - 0-25K - over 3 years Remember- Google activates 1.5+ million devices A DAY, about 45 million devices per month - 450 million over 10 months - How many Android devices are being adopted??? less than 5,000? This guys report is garbage - get decent data and you will understand why AAPL is under performing (on wall street and retail).

It appears he's confused about several aspects of the survey and hasn't made an attempt to address each of the aspects separately. If any of you following along at home allowed him to lead you down his path to confusion, please take a few steps back and consider the following questions. Then, read the article to gain sufficient understanding to answer them correctly. Your confusion will disappear, leaving you with a crystal-clear understanding of the information presented. 1. What service does Intermedia provide and who are their customers? 2. How many new devices are activated on Intermedia's system per month? 3. Of the new devices activated on Intermedia's system every month, what is the breakdown of the devices by OS? 4. Is the number of devices shown on the chart as activated per month cumulative or just for the month shown? (Hint 1: If the activations per month number is cumulative, each data point on the chart will be equal to or greater than the preceding month's data point.) (Hint 2: Each data point shown is not equal to or greater than the preceding month's data point) 5. What percentage of Intermedia's activations are being used as their sample size? 6. For accuracy, is a 100% sample size of Intermedia's activations adequate, or do you believe the sample size should be greater than 100%?
