Android will make strides

In the race for a bigger piece of the market for smartphone operating systems, all the momentum seems to be with Google Android.

A Gartner report that leaked out this week predicts that Google Android will hold a 14.5 percent share of the mobile OS market (522 million unit sales) by the fourth quarter of 2012. That will put it second behind the Symbian system and its projected 39.0 percent share and ahead of Apple's iPhone OS, the current No. 2 mobile operating system.
