The iPhone has captured and captivated the market with its introduction of the new iPhone 3G on July 11th. Ever since iPhone 3G was put on the shelves, there has been no looking back, for Apple has been sitting back and reaping the fruits of…. good labor?

Whatever the case, iPhone users account for about a third of one percent of web browsers on the Internet, bigger than any mobile platform. The iPhone also ranks fourth in terms of operating system market share – leading from the front are Windows, Mac and Linux.

Also, it was recorded on August 16th that stats peaked at 0.45 percent – this being a double increase since iPhone 3G’s launch.

A source from CNBC was quoted as saying that these trends show a key metric on how the market penetration acts and customer use follows; citing to a report that suggested increase in browser market share highlights the iPhone’s key, long term advantages. Furthermore, he went on to say that consumers seem to know what some investors are having trouble grasping, or believing that Apple might be poised in a better position in many key markets, more than any of its competitors.
