I was astounded about the number of cell phones assumed by Paine Webber when I read the piece about Qualcomm written over at the Motley Fool. The author says that it is equivalent to one cell phone for every two people on the planet in 2010. So I looked at that part of the Paine Webber report and the Fool author is right. I don't buy that number of cell phones being sold in one year, not at all.

Then I began to wonder if the author made a mistake in understanding the world population. To see for myself, I ran a search and came up with a really cool poputlation clock. Watch the population change by the second at

metalab.unc.edu

Again, the author of the Fool piece was right about the world population.
