Mobile World Celebrates Four Billion Connections!
natecow | 13 February, 2009 20:39
This is a big day for mobile phones everywhere: The GSMA today announced that the mobile world has celebrated its four billionth connection, according to Wireless Intelligence, the GSMA’s market intelligence unit. This milestone underscores the continued strong growth of the mobile industry and puts the global market on the path to reach a staggering six billion connections by 2013 (the global population is projected to be 7 billion in 2013)!
Much of this growth is credited to emerging markets... Greetings from Nairobi!
