Ice Cream Sandwich will have a larger install base than iOS5
Maybe but when? Honeycomb only has about 2% of the total Android market share 85% are still on Froyo or Gingerbread. What makes you think Ice Cream Sandwich is going to get better penetration?
Ice Cream Sandwich isn't going to have a larger install base then iOS5 anytime soon.
HC's low adoption means nothing in this context as it's only targeted at tablets. However, it's important to point out that 45% of the market is still on Froyo. Google's taking a more heavy-handed stance on updates for new devices, so things should not be as dire on ICS as they have been with past releases. If I had to guess, I'd say 90% of current Honeycomb tablets (thanks to Google's iron-fist control of the source) and maybe 75% of current Gingerbread devices will get the bump to ICS within 6 months.
Honeycomb is a tablet-only OS, so that market share isn't really relevant when talking about Ice Cream Sandwich. The Gingerbread market share would be a better indicator.
