If you're still following.. I just noticed this with some real numbers. Responding to a question from a journalist, Thodey said Telstra had sold some 400,000 Apple iPhones in the second half of 2010 and registered some 70,000 iPads. New iPhones was 400,000, the CEO said. And if you want to keep going, 290,000-something Android smartphones in the first half as well. So Androids is definately catching up. Telstra are the Ex-Govt Monopoly and have an awful lot of land-line customers.. But they have poured a bunch of money into their mobile network in the last 5 years and dropped their prices enough that they are almost price-competive + better coverage.... But it is still the expensive network -- someone like Vodaphone would likely skew cheaper (potentially leaning towards Android some more)
