Considering how much at&t seems to suck, this is hardly surprising. And indeed Android seems to be a very US-centric thing so far.
Take France for instance, where all careers are selling the iPhone :
* iPhone : 2.25 million units currently in service
* Android : 220,000 units currently in service
That's a 10 to 1 ratio !
(as of April 2010, so pre iPhone 4 launch)

- palish 16y agoYou seem to be suggesting that the choice of AT&T was a bad one. How quickly we forget that AT&T was the only carrier that would allow Apple to develop the phone almost completely without influence. Verizon was choice #1, but they refused to allow Apple to have the control it wanted, then issued some kind of silly statement along the lines of "We felt that the user experience was beyond our control with the kinds of demands Apple was asking for". Which is true, but something Verizon just couldn't bear the thought of.
- ergo98 16y ago>as of April 2010, so pre iPhone 4 launch That's pre-almost every Android handset worth owning overseas, around the time that the Desire was starting to make an appearance. The iPhone 4 was a big launch. Yet in that same time period a lot of very, very credible Android handsets have launched. The Samsung Galaxy S will be one of the most interesting of all.
