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 two words, not one. This isn't German.

Yes, it's English, so if I can write it as one word, and you can read it as one word, then it's one word. You can write it as one word, two words, or a hyphenated word, and over time, a sort of consensus will emerge, and consensus of usage will determine correctness. It's not French, where your usage is judged by a committee. :-)
