BlackBerry maker Research In Motion is king of the smartphone hill,
according to data released by researcher comScore.

RIM had a 41.7% market share among smartphone platforms, topping Apple
(iPhone) 24.4%, Microsoft (Windows) 13.2% and Google (Android) 13.0%.
Palm, which was recently acquired by HP, lagged with a 4.8 % share.

The folks at RIM may not want to get overly giddy. The numbers reflect
the three month period ending in May 2010, prior to the iPhone 4's
release and before a slew of new Google Android devices invaded the
market, including the HTC Evo 4G from Sprint and Motorola's Droid X from
Verizon.

Most of the momentum indeed points to Android. Google gained four
percentage points compared to the previous three month reporting period
of February 2010, the only smartphone rival with a positive point change
in market share during that time.
