Its undeniable that Windows Mobile is one of the few dominant mobile operating systems on the planet. Whether that position is held due to its effectiveness or the sheer global power of Microsoft could be debated. But the sheer size of the company behind WinMo doesn’t make it immune to competition and the news from an unnamed HTC executive proves that:

The HTC executive has also admitted that the new Google offering is hurting sales of Windows Mobile devices of which HTC are the biggest maker in the world.

This little morsel of info comes from Smarthouse.com and as always, we warn on taking unsourced info as rumors only, but this one seems like a logical certainty.

The article points out that although HTC has pushed 1 million plus Android units in 2008, Apple moved a million iPhone 3G devices in only 3 days. But with at least 2 more HTC Android’s set for next year and Samsung, Motorola and other manufacturers putting the pieces together, will Apple or Google see more growth in their mobile OS?
