安卓胜利在望？

    然后是Facebook Home应用。这个社交网站的安卓版界面软件将于4月份面市。谁也说不准它将拿出什么样的表现。它可能有助于安卓手机的销售，也有可能意味着Facebook利用谷歌自己的平台来对付谷歌。分析师对Facebook Home的反应分歧很大。

    这种争论将在何处开始平息？数据仍然未能给出答案。市场调研公司Canalys在周一发表的一份报告显示，今年第一季度，谷歌占到应用下载总量的51%，而苹果占到应用收入的74%，至少可以说是各有千秋。上周，互联网信息服务提供商康姆斯科（comScore）的数据显示，安卓销售（就新增用户数而言）在2011年12月攀至顶峰。当然，苹果有可能依靠新款iPhone随时重新改写比分。（财富中文网）

    And then there's Facebook (FB) Home. How the social network's Android-based launchersoftware, due out in April, will actually play out is anybody's guess. It could help sell more Android handsets. Or it could amount to Facebook using Google's own platform against it. Analyst reactions to the announcement were rather mixed.

    Where's this argument start to break down? The numbers are still all over the map. A report from Canalys on Monday showed that while Google captured 51% of all app downloads in the first quarter, Apple took a whopping 74% of the revenue—a mixed bag to say the least. And last week, data drawn from comScore seemed to suggest that Android sales peaked—in terms of growth in number of users—in December 2011. Not to mention, of course, that Apple could reset the scoreboard at any moment with a new iPhone.
