Some of the more notable figures seem to be that at the end of February '13 Windows smartphone sales in the US were at 4.1% compared to 0.7% of RIM. I'm not sure but I think Rim became Blackberry and launched BB10 in March so we'll have to wait for more up to date figures there.
New data for March '13 it shows that for the total percent use of smartphones, Windows Phone has 1.50% total market share compared to Blackberry's 1.38% market share.
Other Windows Phone country use figures are (all figures at the end of Feb '13):
UK use in '13 - 6.7% compared to a '12 figure of 3%
Italy use in '13 - 13.1% compared to a '12 figure of 5.4%
US use in '13 - 4.1% compared to a '12 figure of 2.7%
Australia use in '13 - 1.4% compared to a '12 figure of 3.4%

Pretty much across the board growth for Windows Phone in all regions. Are you happy with the amount of growth for Windows Phone as we are currently seeing? Do you think there are specific reasons like hardware and software support that companies like HTC and Nokia are offering that surpass other platforms out there?
