Cell phones used to be considered a luxury. These days, however, everyone is on the go and cell phones have become a necessity for both business and pleasure.
People of all ages, all over the world, own and use cell phones. Many people have opted for cell phones instead of using traditional home phones, while others use both kinds of services. According to the Cellular Industry Association (CTIA), the number of American cell phone owners rose to 13.7% in 2004. In other words, that is approximately 180 million people, or about 60% of the country’s population. That was 2004, so you can imagine how those numbers have increased in the last two years. The CTIA also reported that cell phone users across the USA talked on their phones for more than one trillion collective minutes in 2004, and that number increases by one-third each year.
Of course, these facts are reflected in the basic marketing practice of supply and demand. With these ever-increasing numbers, there is also an ongoing rise in the amount of phones, accessories and cell phone plans available. So now, it’s easier than ever before to find the perfect cell phone.
