Nice article that provides a counter balance to the prevailing view that Android and iPhone have everything locked up.

I don't see any of them losing the smartphone war.

I agree neither will lose. The part of the article that caught my attention was the solid case that WP7 could be successful. Originally Posted by Winterfang

I agree that Apple will be around as a major player. If I had to bet money, I would say the same about Google but they will have a tougher time than Apple. Originally Posted by CHIP72

I believe that the market will be more stable in a few years. I don't see Apple, Google, or MS failing. I expect each of them to control over 25% of the market. With them going back and forth over which controls over 30%. And at time, 2 or even all 3 may hold 30%.
There will always be the niche market. And I actually wouldn't be that surprised to see Samsung try to make a push with Bada.
