Apple have many ranges of MAC addresses assigned to them; by investigation, I've been able to deduce that some groups are used exclusively by certain devices. Unfortunately this is not always the case (some groups appear to be shared between several) but it allows us to make a good estimate on the smartphone/portablecomputer split using our network.

I'm wondering what method you use for distinguishing the different Apple products (you show distinct counts for iPhone, iPhone4, MacBook). I don't see this level of detail in the IEEE OUI list. Perhaps its just myopia; if not, I'ld be interested to know your method. I'm copying the list, as I'm sure I'm not the only one who will be interested in the answer. Thanks in anticipation.
