This report released by comScore comes as an absolutely delightful news for Google, which in just two years has managed to make Android one of the leading forces in smartphones, surpassing former giants like Research in Motion, Microsoft and Palm with a 33 percent market share; right now, Android only has Apple as a true competitor.

If their +1 system and their pay with your card by phone system work sweet too, it will make these last few years absolutely unbelievable for the giant company.
