Mobile connections now at 2.5 billion.
As noted in The Register, the estimated number of mobile connections in the world is now 2.5 billion (up from two billion 12 months ago).
The estimate is from Wireless Intelligence, who comment: "The cellular industry took 20 years to reach one billion connections, three years to reach two billion connections and is on target to reach its third billion in a period of just over two years. " Much of the growth comes from the BRIC nations (Brazil, Russia, India and China).
