Exactly my point
Bruni Giusanni’s Lunch over IP has a post here, discussing the Informa Telecoms & Media research report stating that there are now more cell phones than people in 30 countries. Bruni discusses the point that some of this is due to personal and corporate phones, as well as businessmen and other travelers using prepaid SIM cards in the countries they’re visiting.
Regardless, this is a stunning number and I imagine we haven’t seen the end of the growth rate on that either. He lists the countries and some other useful data on total GSM subscribers.
