The iPhone sold 25.4 million units last year (15% of the market share). There were 7.7 million Android units (8% of the market share) sold. As the first iPhone came out 1.25 years before the first Android phone, this is by no means a crushing. Android has only recently been advertised, most of that by Verizon (99% of my customers who ask about android ask about Droid, not Android). The fact you can get android phones for free/cheap and on almost every carrier is likely enough to grant them a larger eventual marketshare than iPhoneOS. There are only so many AT&T subscribers (or people willing to be AT&T subscribers after that wiretapping thing and their poor performance in cities). You can like the iPhone better (and I do) and still admit "Oh hey, Android phones are getting sold a lot these days".
