Believe it or not but this is happening.
Apple has surpassed Nokia as the # 1 smartphone maker in the world. That is correct and the news came out yesterday. It seems even Samsung beat Nokia and emerged as # 2 on this list. Strategy Analytics have made this announcement public and you can visit this link to read more about it. This had to happen sooner or later and we all know about this. The only worry for Apple is the Android OS for mobile devices as Android is gaining amazing momentum and is currently way ahead of the iOS. Hopefully with the launch of iOS 5 and the new iPhone Apple will try to reduce the lead, but as of now, Android is unstoppable.
Another interesting thing which I would like to mention is the Apple cash which is creating history as we speak. I read this amazing analysis where it seems Apple has surpassed the US Treasury as far as cash is concerned. We all know that the US has been going through one of the worst debt crisis and god only know what will happen post Aug 2nd if the debt ceiling has not been raised. And here are the figures that will make you go berserk. Apple has the total cash balance of $76.156 billion and on the other hand we have US treasury which has the balance of $73.768 billion. Now that is just amazing and totally unbelievable.
