Superb stats of Mobile Phones. Out of 5.5 Billion mobile phones, only 22% of them are smartphones. We are approaching the “Mobile Moment” as Tomi T. Ahonen said:
Globally we are at 5.5 Billion mobile phones, actual handsets, in use worldwide. It is a number that has no comparison now. TV sets, PCs, DVD players don’t even come close. Portable devices like PSPs, Gameboys, cameras, MP3 players don’t match up. Even the total worldwide installed base of FM radios maxes out at 4.1 Billion units, but mobile phones, they now are at 5.5 Billion in use.
