PDAs, Cellphones, Wireless Acer is the latest smartphone handset maker to shift its resources from Windows Mobile to Android. And with competing OSes grabbing marketshare and attention daily, an observer couldn't be faulted for assuming that Microsoft's mobile OS initiative is in terminal decline. But it's quite possible that the mobile computing market is growing so fast that there will be room for all these players, and more.

Market Share is the percentage of the population that uses your product.
Growth of the product is the number of units sold per time unit.

So if the total population grew 400%
and you sold 100% more product this year. Then your Market share fell. But your company still grew.
