Note - LOTS more data available in the blog post!
Update:  Mary Meeker used this in her recent Internet Trends presentation, and has been called out on it by SFGate.
"The person Meeker listed as the source for the slide, mobile consultant Tomi Ahonen, says he never saw any data to back up the 150 times-a-day number. It was a figure he had heard cited at conferences since 2010. The figures presented in Meeker's bar chart were "definitely only opinion," and "not intended in any way as a 'study' of consumer behavior."
Perhaps more significantly, his blog, in introducing the information, was clearly not discussing smartphones. It read: "What would a 'typical user' do with the non-smartphone today ... ?""
