Re: Interesting stat on cell phone sales

nokias are HUGE in europe i saw this one on a train that looked EXACTLY like a new BBY 9700.. and iphones were way more popular in europe vs here..

here i'd say its a 60/40 split rim/apple or maybe even 70/30 rim/apple

but in europe where i was i'd say it was seriously 10/90 rim/apple

Re: Interesting stat on cell phone sales

Nokia is still huge in Europe and Asia. When my Mom worked for Rogers she told me that Nokia offers to bring a lot of their phones here but want huge upfront orders from providers like Rogers and hence why we do not see that many of their products here.
