A recent survey of smart phone buying intentions in the U.S. market by the Yankee Group shows 36 percent planning an Android purchase, while 33 percent of respondents said they'd buy an Apple device.
About 15 percent said BlackBerry would be their choice, while nine percent indicated a preference for a Windows device.
As has always been the case, Nokia does not register, scoring one percent interest, on a par with Palm.
Whether Nokia's switch to Windows for its operating system will have a positive impact on OS share remains to be seen, but many believe Windows will be the clear winner, overtaking BlackBerry.
