Does anyone understand what's happening in their graph[1] in 2005? I don't understand what would cause Apple to jump from 5-25% in one year, 2 years before the iPhone.

They probably changed their methodology but forgot to say it.


I agree. 'Other' category jumped from 0 to 29% as well. Likely at this point they started considering a wider range of devices or something like that.


There's no way they could possibly consider that generation of iPods "computing devices."


Most probably iPods. They were selling like hot cakes in those years.


The iPod, maybe?
