I think last time this got brought up it turned into a pissing match so 
The trigger both cocks (partially) and fires the gun on a pull, so it's considered double action. A single action trigger performs the single action of releasing the sear.

True dat!
I agree w/ the confusion surrounding the description/designation of handguns w/ striker mechanisms. To cloud the water even more, consider the Canik TT9SA (yes, the "SA" designation stands for "single action.") Yet, here's a description of the trigger mechanism; sounds like a typical striker mechanism:

What I received, however, is the Canik TP9SA. Unlike the standard TP9, it has a Glock-like trigger safety so that the gun can safely be carried in single-action mode with the striker pre-cocked.
