That and the 600+ mil deal LWIN did to build out their system yesterday. Add the following <<On mobile phone use levels worldwide: ''The overall market is actually increasing, more than the industry foresaw a year ago. We are talking about 250 million or more (phone users this year), whereas a year ago
we were talking maybe 200 million.>>
Every phone or handset that is sold will be Internet ready in the very near future. Now take this a little further, every phone, land line or wireless will be Internet ready, it will be a standard feature.
