Apple's iPhone 3G was the best-selling mobile phone in the United
States in the third quarter, surpassing former champion theMotorola
(NYSE: MOT) Razr, which fell to second place, a market research firm
said Monday.

Nevertheless, the iPhone's popularity among U.S. consumers failed to
lift the overall market. Handset purchases overall declined 15% from
the same period a year ago to 32 million units, the NPD Group said.
Handset revenue fell 10% to $2.9 billion, even though the average
selling price rose 6% to $88.

The Razr was ranked the top-selling consumer handset for 12
consecutive quarters. The iPhone's ascension represented a "watershed
shift in handset design from fashion to fashionable functionality,"
NPD analyst Ross Rubin said in a statement.
