Netgear's CEO Patrick Lo has predicted the Android will beat the iPhone as the world's leading smartphone.
The Sydney Morning Herald has quoted Lo as saying that the iPhone is "ultimately a closed system that just can't go that far", and that Android is continuing to creep up.
Android became the world's leading smartphone platform in the fourth quarter of 2010, and Android-equipped shipped 32.9 million handsets worldwide during that period.
Apple shipped only 16.2 million iPhone's in the same time frame.
Lo said that the open-source OS from Google will eventually become a standard, seriously challenging Apple's iOS.
Google's open-source software is proving to be a big hit with smartphone makers such as LG, Samsung, Acer and HTC.
On the topic of Microsoft's Windows Phone 7, Lo suggested that the glory days of Microsoft have passed.
'Microsoft is game-over from my point of view'.
