Actual shocker: Moto DROID outsells iPhone in first 74 days on sale.

  • March 16, 2010 9:59 am

Alright, why 74 days as a benchmark? It’s a bid odd for sure. The iPhone took 74 days to hit 1 million units sold, so it’s an easy benchmark to go by for other phones. In the case of the DROID, it’s met and surpassed the iPhone’s once thought unbeatable number by roughly half a million — no small feat I’d say. Margin of error is claimed to be pretty low since Flurry’s (the company doing the analytics grunt work) analytics tools are on over 80% of all the devices highlighted above.

I knew the DROID did considerably well for Android, Verizon, and Moto, but I’m definitely more surprised that it even beat the iPhone. A new champ we now have, that is, until summer rolls around…

Anyone else surprised?

Google Analytics iPhone app giving you bad password/username errors? There’s a reason…

  • October 23, 2009 3:01 pm


Frequent users of Google’s Analytics iPhone app may have noticed that when trying to log into the app as of late brings up a “bad username or password error”. Don’t worry. It isn’t your fault — probably. According to the Google Analytics support, there is a known issue with the current version of the app. A fix is in the making however with an update scheduled for October 29th if everything goes according to plan.

I’ve been getting the bad pass/user error for about a week and a half now and haven’t heard a peep. A more viral announcement would have been nice. But it’s quite possible I somehow missed it so I wont fret. I initially chalked up to network issues as coverage is flaky where I live. No hard feelings though. The fix is coming soon and reported to be free. (A good thing!)
