Howdy – this is my first time posting, finally as a PHEV/EV intender! After lurking through a slew of green car forums for the past few months, I couldn’t help but notice the abundance of threads regarding mobile phone interoperability for the new generation of PHEV/EVs. I’ve also been keeping up with the apps being introduced by the OEMs and others. And it got me thinking – what is the most predominant phone used by PHEV / EV drivers? Nielsen just released the following info on overall phone OS market share, and I figured – let’s see how our niche of the market compares! I went ahead and made a short 60 second survey on qualtrics (loved using this in school). I figured I’d post it on the car forums I frequent, and then after a week or so, I’ll post the results. Full disclosure: I’m working on a project where the info will be more than helpful, but I hoped posting the results would be interesting for the community. Feel free to answer if you’re curious…[FONT="]https://qtrial.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_2h74hzBCwsj2QXq[/FONT]
Have you noticed any adverse functionality due to operation on an iOS device other than the iPhone, or does it work peachy keen? Sorry for the misstep - I tried finding the best place to post it as I thought Prius drivers might be some of the first to make the switch to a PHEV/EV. Please direct me to the best place to post
My fav mobile device is my car. I have a cell phone (not a smart phone) which I'd gladly throw in the ocean if it wasn't necessary for my business. I would disconnect in a New York second if I could. Hate the damn things.
+1 It doesn't seem to matter any more. I think I'll start a thread on fishing ... or baking with an easy bake oven. Something about the PHEV forum that's a magnet for everything non PHEV.
Survey is up to 44 responses! Keep 'em coming! Some truly interesting results. More importantly - 60 seconds.
Results - hot off the presses! Certainly attests to how close the two main platforms are for EV drivers. Particularly interesting were the changes from Q3 to Q4 -- After 79 complete responses on 6/13/11...
