However, according to United Nations, the world population is around 6.8 Billion. Now, this doesn’t obviously mean that the 5 billion connections came from 5 billion different unique users, as a single person can always have multiple mobile phones.
These stats came out from Ericson on July 8th 2010 and the number could increase still faster too. The company also revealed that there were about 720 million users in the year 2000 and its 5 billion now. No wonder, emerging markets like India and China had a major impact on these numbers.
The company also predicts that 80% of the internet users these days, will surely access internet from their mobile devices in the very near future.
