An IDG report claims that the shipment growth for the BlackBerry handheld grew by 35.7% over the years.  In the third quarter of 2008, 14.6% of smartphones (PDAs) sold worldwide were BlackBerry devices.  We see that later in the third quarter of 2009 that the number went up to 19%. On the other side, iPhone shipments had a total growth of 7.1%.  Statistics like these show great results in growth as 7% is pretty high in our economy.  With that being said, BlackBerry shipments increased 5 times faster (or 400%) than the iPhone did.
