"Our partners are shipping about 65,000 Android handsets per day but if you check the blogosphere you'll discover there are some reports that that number might be quite low," Schmidt said. In other words, Schmidt expressed a conservative estimate. This of course doesn't mean that NPD is right. What amazes me is that we have to estimate the number of sold devices, while in 2010 it could be even a datum available daily/weekly on a website, if manufacturers wished to be fully transparent. :-) - -- Fabrizio Giudici - Java Architect, Project Manager Tidalwave s.a.s. - "We make Java work.
