Mobile Phones are not Created Equal.
The mobile phone market grew 11.3 percent year over year in the second quarter of 2011, according to data gathered by International Data Corp. Vendors shipped 365.4 million units in the second quarter of this year, compared with 328.4 million units in the same quarter in 2010, a recent report shows.

Read MoreTwo of My Favourite Things
New phone has surpassed my expectations and continues to push the boundaries of what something you can fit in your pocket can do.
