I would estimate Android has more ad-supported applications so I'm not surprised at all.

I can't think of any ad-supported Android apps. (I have a lot of apps, and none of them have ads.)

Really? There are tons of them. Some of the AdMob supported apps on my phone at the moment include:

* Movies (Flixster) * Load Monitor * MixZing * Virtual Beer * BlueTooth File Transfer * Carr Matey * Aldiko * Camera Magic * VG Classics Board * Dolphin Browser

The Hacker News Reader app is also ad supported, although I think they're using a different ad network.

From mine, HeyWay and AccuWeather use AdMob, while Instapaper Free uses "The Deck"
