are android devices really that unpopular there? even amongst the people coding the android app?


It's like that in most of the Valley. You have (a) early adopters who jumped on the iPhone train in 2007 and can't get off due to lock-in (apps, familiarity), (b) high percentage of Mac users creating a halo effect, and (c) hero-worship of Steve Jobs/Apple. This combines to make the percentage of Android users in the Valley much lower than in the general population.


huh. I never noticed that having android was so rare amongst techies in the valley.
