Just to keep things in perspective, a quote from Nokia:

“In the second quarter 2007, the total mobile device volume
achieved by our Mobile Phones, Multimedia and Enterprise
Solutions business groups reached 100.8 million units,
representing 29% year on year growth and an 11% sequential
increase.”

Much of the growth was attributed to growing markets in Europe
and Asia.

You want a model breakdown to go with that??....(c;

Apple made about as much on iPhones as Nokia did on earbuds.

I'm too busy trying to figure out all the spreadsheet stuff I can
do on the FREE Gnumeric Spreadsheet I just found, today, that's
been ported to the N800/810 tablets.

For you Apple boys who haven't seen open source development
before, here's the "Quick Start Guide for Beginners". WARNING -
it's NOT you Mac user's manual...(c;

guide.pdf
Beginners doesn't mean USERS. The manual is for the hackers who
write this wonderful code!

But only 82% were activated. Explane that.

Activated on AT&T that is.

Others were unlocked, run on T-Mobile, Rogers, or overseas.

In article <339th3dl3f7fqj5o644tfu7fh92pd5on4f@4ax.com>,

Article today from Mac exec says 250,000 (or close) were not activated
and hence suspect overseas unlocks. The bulk was done after the price
discount.
Article all over web. You can Google it.

That about equals 18% (and again - not activated on AT&T);
also some folks bought an iPhone to use like the current iPod Touch,
before there was a celularless iPhone.
