According to Gartner, Apple more than doubled its share of the worldwide smartphone market in Q1 of this year to 10.8%.And that's not counting last Friday's launch of the iPhone 3G S, which Apple says sold over a million units this past weekend. Piper Jaffray’s Gene Munster <a href="http://apple20.blogs.fortune.cnn.com/2009/06/22/munster-apple-sold-750000-iphones-last-weekend/">notes</a> that 12% of buyers are now switching from a BlackBerry, compared with 6% last year.
