IPhones Take Over the Internet

Amazing. Really amazing.

iPhone owners were responsible for nearly one out of every 1,000 Web page views last month. This erases any doubt that the future of mobile devices most certainly includes the Web.
The iPhone has the same browser as Apple’s computers, meaning iPhone owners can see the same version of Web pages people see on their PCs.
IPhone owners embraced the browser to the extent that they represented 0.09% of all Web pages viewed in November. That doesn’t sound like much, but consider that through September, Apple had only sold 1.4 million iPhones.
As a point of comparison, devices running every version of Windows mobile operating system combined made up 0.06% of Web page views.
Companies have been making mobile devices that run Windows since 1996, according to Computer World, and three million of the devices were shipped in the first quarter of 2007 alone, according to research company Gartner.
iPhone owners are about 90 times more likely to view a Web page than the typical Internet user
