The fact that the number of cell phone subscriptions has surpassed the population in about 30 countries proves that it’s no more a gadget for the creamy layer, rather an inevitable necessity.
The more than 100 per cent mobile penetration, as researched by Informa Telecom & Media, clearly depicts the growing craze to go mobile. People with more than one subscription too have given fillip to the craze.
