World mobile subscribers top 2 billion
The number of mobile phone subscribers in the world has surpassed the 2 billion milestone Wireless Intelligence, an information service set up by industry body GSM Association and consulting firm Ovum, said on Sunday.
"The bulk of the new growth now is coming from large, less well-developed markets such as China, India, Eastern Europe, Latin America and Africa," Wireless Intelligence said in a statement.
The largest mobile phone maker, Finnish Nokia, said last month it expects the 2 billion mark to be reached in the October-to-December quarter and 3 billion by 2010.
