There are three ways this article gets it wrong:

1. It fails to divide the market into price bands: Android dominates from $100 to $300, above which it splits the market with Apple.

2. It fails to note that Apple isn't attacking the $100 to $300 price bands.

3. It fails to note that the $50 to $100 price band is dominated by Samsung and Nokia feature phones. Is Apple going to expand in that price band ths year? Is Series 40 ready to defend against cheap Androids? Yeah, we know what's actually going to happen here.
