iPhone scores over smart phone category as a whole in UK

iPhones are good; but how good are they?      A recent study on iPhone users in UK suggests that iPhones are twice as likely to motivate their owners to consume a variety of content and undertake an online activity.

With respect to the consumption of content and the activity undertaken, iPhone scores over smart phone category as a whole.

For instance, while 80 out of 100 iPhone users in UK accessed news/info via browser in January 2009; only 48 out of 100 did so among other smart phone users as a whole.

Below are Activity and the percentage of users who undertook the activity in their respective categories (iPhone and the smart phone category in general):
