India Mobile News: more cell phone users than US by April 2008

Translate Into:

India Mobile News
When it comes to the population of China and India, they dwarf many other countries including the US, but their technology has always been miles behind. Now it looks like India will have more cell phone users than the USA by April 2008, this has been reported by India’s telecom regulatory body (TRAI).

They have said the mobile phone segment has seen an increase of “8.53 million subscribers in the month of February 2008 and 8.77 million subscribers in January 2008”; this now takes India’s total wireless phone users to 250.93 million. This is phenomenal growth and much more than China and the US in the same months, TRAI makes the prediction that India will take second place by April 08 in total subscriber base. The worlds first are China.

This growth will keep increasing for a long time yet as only 1 in 4 Indians have a phone.
