It’s that time of the month again!! This is when we find out how badly Android is fragmented. According to Google, Jelly Bean is on about 40.5% devices, up from 37.9% the previous month. If you look at Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and Jelly Bean combined, the total is at 63.1%, up from 61.3% last month.

I know a lot people seem to get excited how great this is, but seriously folks. Ice Cream Sandwich debuted in October of 2011 and Jelly Bean debuted last June 2012. I’m sorry, this is nothing to get excited about. In fact, Gingerbread, which was announced in November 2010, is still on 33.1% of devices.

The good news is that Android device sales continue to rock & roll while Tim Cook keeps arguing about fragmentation. Translation – nobody cares.
