Pretty close to what we're seeing:

   1. Internet Explorer  5,493,047    64.03% 	
   2. Firefox            1,796,239    20.94% 	
   3. Safari             742,371       8.65% 	
   4. Chrome             489,051       5.70% 	
   5. Opera               38,441       0.45% 	
   6. Mozilla              6,603       0.08% 	
   7. Mozilla Compatible   5,320       0.06% 	
   8. Playstation 3        1,710       0.02%

Who said Apple doesn't have a de-facto monopoly in smartphones? For some definition of smartphone, they seem to own the market.

Perhaps. Could also be that iPhone owners are more likely to use their smartphone to browse the web. Anecdotally, I still see more Blackberries than iPhones.

A very large market share isn't the same as a monopoly. People are very free to buy android phones or windows mobile or whatever they like.
