During Q1 2011, Windows users were down 17% over the same period last year. However, we saw iPhone usage increase by a massive 86%.
It’s interesting that all iPhones are equipped with 3g data connectivity… Will the operators ever upgrade their network or are they going to permanently offload on to Wi-Fi Hotspot Providers, like PolkaSpots?
How does the free trial work?

A massive earthquake, the seventh largest recorded in history, struck the east coast of Japan on Friday 11 March.
The earthquake measured 9.0 on the Richter scale and triggered a tsunami which hit Japan’s east coast with 7-metre-high waves.
More than 2,000 people have died in the disaster and some 2,000 are injured. The number of confirmed dead is expected to rise to around 10,000.
The Japanese Red Cross has agreed to accept donations from the UK.
You can help too by donating whatever you can through the British Red Cross site here.
Such tragedies should make us realise just how lucky we are everyday…
