Two separate reports — one from AdMob, the other from Impress — show that Apple’s iPhone is not only huge at home in the U.S., it’s also conquering foreign markets, especially Japan.
The AdMob Mobile Metrics report for November 2009 highlights the international growth of iPhone and iPod touch users, showing huge percentage jumps in Japan, France, Australia, China and other countries since the beginning of the year. Of course, most iPhone and iPod Touch users — 50 percent of them — are still located in the U.S., but Apple’s mobile devices are growing much faster internationally...

Comment: all those users, unable to search for video from their iPhones.
If Blinkx management don't want to be thought of as clueless idiots by their shareholders maybe they should get with the program and stop acting like clueless idiots. Their B2B strategy seems to be proceeding apace (if far too slowly for my liking), but they seem to be completely ignoring the B2C piece. They should just build a f**king iPhone app, get it out there, let word of it start spreading virally among iPhone users (who in my experience spend a lot of their time showing off their latest cool app discoveries to friends and the community), let usage slowly build over time. That would be one more box checked, one more piece of the jigsaw in place, and shareholder happier than now.
Which isn't hard, as many shareholders are not at all happy at the moment...
