- bookwormAT 14y agoThere are about 500 million Android devices out there and 410 million iOS devices (both numbers are from Wikipedia). We now at least from Android that most devices are smartphones equiped with a radio. So 250 million people can not be most people. And as I read it, the number of current LTE users must be much, much lower than that, since Verizon states that it had 111.3 million customers (using LTE or not) in Q2 2012: http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57505803-94/competitive-wireless-carriers-take-on-at-t-and-verizon/ http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57505803-94/competitive-wir... )
