2
billion cell phones by 2008
The
Strategis Group has published a new report that
suggests next year, more than 483 million cellphone handsets
will be sold to end-users globally, and one third of the
world's population will own a wireless device by 2008. The
report also reveals "the handset industry is following
a growth path that can be compared to the PC industry a
decade ago. Many handset manufacturers are outsourcing
design and manufacturing, and they are gaining scale and
cost efficiencies while focusing on core competencies,"
notes Ed Wallace, an industry veteran, contributing to this
report. (Click here to see entire report)
