RIM Going the Way of Palm OS and Microsoft Windows Mobile: Marketshare Shrinking Away (Nielsenwire)

Nielsenwire’s U.S. smartphone recent purchase and overall marketshare data provides a couple of clear messages.

– RIM and its BlackBerry phones are in big trouble. Recent acquistion share is down from 35% in June 2010 to 19.2% in November 2010. Overall marketshare is down from 33.9% to 26.1% in the same time frame. Statistical margin of error or not, BlackBerry phone sales look destined to drop enough to be the clear #3 in the U.S. very soon.
