Lies, damn lies, and statistics

Just a quick thought, maybe it's because I love the iphone, but when I'm on a train, in a coffee bar or a pub, etc the amount of people I see that are using their iPhone's far far out weighs the market share it is supposed to have. I think the last figure I saw was still single digits in terms of share of the whole phone market, many reports show it around 16-18% of the smart phone market, whilst others put it at 26% of market based on OS install, which probably then includes the iPod Touch.

I wonder if there are any stats for iPhone install within certain demographics, that would be really interesting....
