A Third of iPhone Owners have a Second Phone

A Third of iPhone Owners have a Second Phone

From what we can tell in the Silicon Valley, a good chunk of these dual-users are around here. I do see a lot of people with an iPhone (to show off) and a Blackberry (to get stuff done) and it is not surprising: despite what iPhone fans are saying, the virtual keyboard of the iPhone simply underperforms, and guess what, it does not get any better overtime.

That’s exactly what I said on January 9 2007: “In my opinion, the iPhone can win the hearts (and wallets) of users who wants a read-only smartphone”

Highlights (from valleywag)
  • The most heavily used data function on the iPhone is reading (but not writing) email.
  • 40 percent say the iPhone has trouble displaying some websites they want to visit.
  • 50 percent of iPhones replaced conventional mobile phones, 40 percent replaced smartphones, and 10 percent replaced nothing.
