Apparently, there are now more mobile phones in use in Australia than the nation’s population – to be exact, 21.26 million of them!
Of these, 4.5m are 3G, an increase of nearly 200% on mid-year figures between 2006 and 2007. In the same period, fixed line services dropped away slightly (hardly surprising, it’s happening everywhere!).
These stats came from the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) 2006-07 communications report – and tell us, not for the first time that penetration can reach 100%+
With Convergence firmly in everyones (in the industry) minds, we can but wonder what the next component of this trend is going to be….
