67% of mobile web use fall upon Apple iPhone
Net Applications' February research found out that Apple's iPhone controls 66.61 percent of mobile web use, with its closes rival, Windows Mobile, owning only 6.91 percent of the traffic.

Some other companies who have lost to Apple's iPhone by large would be Google's Android and Symbian with equal 6.15 percent, Research in Motion's email-centric BlackBerry OS with 2.24 percent and PalmOS devices with 2.37 percent.

Although the reasons of such a big discrepancy are not clear, they repeat data found by AdMob. The company had identified that in January half of all US smartphone traffic and a third of smartphone use worldwide had fallen on the share of iPhone. 

Net Applications pointed that although they have not generated high scores, achievements of Android, which was launched only at the end of the last year and BlackBerry OS were considerable.

Talking about desktop-class operating systems, it should be highlighted that Windows has increased its share and reached 88.42 percent, while Mac OS X share has declined from the highest score in the history of the company and made 9.61 percent. And the amount of the web using iPhone operating systems still remains the same, 0.48 percent.
