M:Metrics: iPhone users love Mobile Web, Search Engines most popular
M:Metrics, a measurement firm that studies mobile media, has released a survey of iPhone users. The results from the January survey of more than 10,000 adults, are somewhat dramatic. 84.8 percent of iPhone users report accessing news and information from the hand-held device. That compares to 13.1 percent of the overall mobile phone market and 58.2 percent of total smartphone owners – which include those poor saps with Blackberries and devices that run Windows.
The study found that 58.6 percent of iPhone users visited a search engine on their phone, compared to 37 percent of smartphone users in general
