According to Net Applications Linux has lost the #3 OS spot to iOS. Personally I think this is an anomaly (not to mention I don't trust Net Applications results as it looks like 80% of their information is from the US) but still it is a little worrying.
I do have to wonder though how is Android not showing up in there numbers if it is the case the more people are using mobile browsing ?
And if this is more then an anomaly what impact might this have on Linux?

I never trust those statistics.
I just never see them giving real hard evidence on their figures.
Agreed and most of the other stat trackers disagree with their numbers anyway.
