Google's Andy Rubin announced via Google+ with the aim of the company is at present activating 700,000 machine policy each sunlight hours.
"There are at present in excess of 700,000 machine policy activated each sunlight hours," thought Rubin in the sphere of a stake to his Google+ explanation Tuesday. "For folks wondering we count both device lone once upon a time (ie, we don't count re-sold devices), and 'activations' income you function into a storehouse, bad buy a device, position it on the net by subscribing to a wireless Sony VGP-BPL6 service."
It wasn't with the aim of prolonged ago--October, to come about specific--Google told us the each day instigation rate was 550,000. It appears in the same way as though there's been a pretty huge hop in the sphere of instigation records this fall, and the rate has doubled since April, whilst Google thought with the aim of the rate was 350,000 each day activations.
To position the 700,000 each day activations personage into perspective, 29,000 introduce somebody to an area are trade contemporary machine policy each hour, or else 486 each meticulous, or else 8 each flash.
By the side of this rate, Google might come about activating single million machine policy both sunlight hours sooner than the Sony VGP-BPL6 focus of 2012. It is on the cards Google willpower trade 250 million machine policy in the sphere of 2012. That's a portion of policy. (Keep in the sphere of mind, this is a worldwide amount, and isn't given to the United States.)
Apple's iPhone remains Google's next-closest competitor, but it pales in the sphere of comparison.
If we take the nearly everyone recently released paper records from Apple, we know with the aim of it sold 17.07 million iPhones in its fiscal fourth quarter. Divide with the aim of by 90 days in the sphere of the quarter and you urge a relatively miserable 189,000 each day iPhone activations.
The huge caveat at this point is, of track, with the aim of iPhone sales slowed down dramatically in the sphere of the May-October interlude in the same way as introduce somebody to an area waited meant for Apple to announce the iPhone 5. Of track, Apple didn't announce the iPhone 5, and as a substitute launched the iPhone 4S. IPhone sales pulled out up again in the sphere of October once upon a time the iPhone 4S reached storehouse shelves--but not in the sphere of measure to let somebody have us added trustworthy and up-to-date each day instigation records.
Even so, Google is murder Sony VGP-BPL6, rebuff question, and Apple willpower likely in no way catch back up with machine.
With machine 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich to be had on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, attraction in the sphere of machine willpower lone persist to wonderful.
