My firm "only" manages to bill at 175/hr on the East Coast (two offices: Boston and NYC) on iOS work, and we've seen a somewhat steady decline in demand. Things might be different in SV. We're pretty content with the amount of work we've already drawn from iOS development, though, so if the cash cow is dead we won't be too upset.


iOS is just getting started.

Android lost 13% US market share in Oct. and Nov. to the iPhone (cnn.com)

Important distinction: that's 13% of smartphone sales, not total market share. Numbers for sales available here: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13579_3-57355900-37/iphone-4s-inch...

Numbers for total market share here: http://www.macrumors.com/2011/12/29/apple-and-android-gain-s...


There's a difference between market share and demand for app developers.
