Why are these journalist either so stupid, limited in their knowledge or just paid to be both?? Is there not one of them who have any kind of connection to even a faberge egg, so popular in USA, a regular industrial designer around or did they all have to turn to journalism after not knowing, at an early age, what to do for the rest of their lives?? Is the key factor to keep them working hard and long enoughhours to not even reflect on why they so desire an italian sports car?? Ilmarinen I'm still confused, because clearly some, even Ford designers and journalists, seem to have some basic understanding, and the guys at CocaCola sometimes seem to get it. Even AT&T have had their times. (well, until that Pepsi did the "new generation" thing, ouch, for a something like that, from earlier history, not suitable for the anything but the backyard)

Western Europe to see handset sales decline 30/01/2002 By 2006, 77 per cent of all handset sold will be replacements, up from slightly more than half in 2001, says a study published by Strategy Analytics. Despite GSM's overall dominance of the cellular market, CDMA will control a disproportionate share of the 3G markets by 2006. Retail sales will have increased to 870 million phones by 2006. By then, Southeast Asia will account for 40 per cent of total sales, more than double the size of any other region. Western Europe and North America will see their share of handset sales fall significantly over the next five years from over to 36 per cent in 2006 from 50 per cent in 2001. Having fallen 13 per cent in 2001, Western European handset sales will remain flat in 2002, before beginning to recover in 2003, as companies are still trying to get rid of built-up inventory. europemedia.net
