Clorox says they started the phone swaps in April or May of 2010, when there were a whole 5 Android phones available in the USA and probably 4 in the rest of the world. Except for the 1st gen. Droid, all of the others were pretty mediocre units that were saddled with pitifully small internal memory and still used Android version 1.6 (Donut). This tiny list of models were spread in onesies and twosies across Verizon, Sprint and TMobile. AT&T didn’t even carry *any* Android phones until March 2010 and that was the bizarre Motorola “BackFlip”. Besides, unless you were a hardcore phone geek you hadn’t even heard of “Android” except in the Droid commercials for VZW.

Compare that to “iPhone”, a well established brand name that was selling like crazy and got lots of publicity from Apple’s hot new iPad that was released just a few months before the redesigned iPhone 5. Of course most of the employees went for iPhones that year. OMG – hold the presses!
