Apple’s iPhone is making great strides these days.  A recent article in AdAge Digital alludes to the fact that there’s a corporate shift from RIM’s Blackberry — a long-favored staple in corporate IT world — to the iPhone for a number of reasons.  Even some government agencies are making the switch. 

And Mashable reported last month that Steve Jobs said the iPhone is “winning” with more than 1.5 billion (yes, Billion) apps being downloaded, making it really difficult for Blackberry and others to keep up. 

Even CNET states, “the iPhone continues to garner huge buzz, long lines, and a growing share of the cell phone market,” in their recent editors’ review.  The long-awaited growth of mobile platforms to support social networking and other mobile technologies is, perhaps, here to stay. 

iPhones sales aren’t even bothered by the recession.  In fact, the Apple Store in NYC is highest grossing retailer on Fifth Avenue.  Check out the Fast Company story here.
