Market tracking firm Net Applications has released a report this week indicating that the Google Android mobile operating system has increased its market share faster than any other mobile OS to date through the months of November and December 2009.
Web surfing statistics gathered by the firm show that Android use for browsing increased 54.8 percent through the period, fueled by the much-hyped launch of the Motorola DROID and CLIQ handsets along with burgeoning excitement over the rumored announcement of the Google Phone (now know as the Nexus One).
Other statistics revealed by the research show RIM’s Blackberry OS with a 22.2 percent increase followed by Apple iPhone OSX at 20.1 percent, Symbian at 19 percent and Java ME at 15.6 percent.
Despite the soaring popularlity of mobile devices, all of these numbers fall under the meager 1.35 percent of all surfing that those mobile devices account for with all other web surfing taking place via more conventional platforms.
