Over a Billion Cell Phones Shipped

Posted in Blogs, Developers, Mobile, Mobile Devices, News at 2:13 am by Alice Pretchet

Selena Jackson wrote a great post on her blog about more than 1 billion cell phones were shipped for the first time ever in a year in 2006, one factor for the large increase in sales was driven by a strong holiday season demand. And the two biggest suppliers posted strong gains to boost their market shares in the quarter, with number two Motorola closing the gap to industry leader Nokia on phones shipped.

And ofcourse this only means great news for mobile web developers as we should all see an increase in yearly salaries and more demand for work.
