Research in Motion has been dominating the market in the US with 44.5 percent market share last year. That is not the case in Asia however. According to Springboard Reasearch Windows Mobile is much more dominant in Asia.
"But in the Asia-Pacific region, Windows Mobile devices hold stronger market penetration, at an estimated 6 million devices shipped last year—while RIM's was under 1 million, according to Springboard Research.
Bryan Wang, research director, connectivity, at Springboard, told ZDNet Asia in an e-mail interview that BlackBerry's uptake in the region is slower than that in the U.S. partly because of Windows Mobile's dominance, and also due to the associated service costs associated with BlackBerry's push mail function."
Don't give up on that Windows Mobile phone just yet.
