Taking the subway to and from work gives me the opportunity to observe devices in use by commuters. The first observation is that smartphone adoption in Singapore is high with at least half the commuters (by my unscientific calculation) using smartphones to play games or listen to music.
And the second observation is that the type of smartphone used seems to be cleanly divided between Blackberry and iPhone users. The former are usually corporate/banker types or people who have to use a Blackberry because of a corporate diktat. The iPhone user is one who has made a personal choice. Having said that, Standard Chartered Bank is now permitting its bankers to use the iPhone instead of the Blackberry.
