Ahah! Yea, people outside of Asia presume that Asia's just a jungle, with jungle people who live in tree houses and caves. Or they think everyone in Asia is Chinese. Sheesh, oh well. Singapore is pretty far in technology too. :)

Yea. And why have these people ran out of space??

Anyway from this (http://www.mobileburn.com/vote.jsp?Id=1) mburn poll 126 people voted that they were in Africa (well it says 'other' but that really means Africa...), thats 4%. So this poll is missing dee and another 4%.

Thanks MATE!!

Its cool if others help out....


Kristof I dont wanna be ugly or offensive but that is the mistake that most of the world makes. PLEASE pay us a visit. (yes we do have aeroplanes and airports) Your eyes will be opened....eg. The airports all have WIFI connected to broadband, so yes there are computers. AND most have PC's.

cheers

Iīm sure you speak about just South Africa, since I donīt think many people in Sudan and Chad, for example, have a computer or a mobile phone.

You have to admit that its rather funny... you include the arctic and antartica and when he says you forgot africa you simply say: "but anyway, most people in africa doesn't have a computer or a mobile phone... so, won't make a huge different..."

well... i think it would make a bigger difference than the people living in Antartica.... all 12 of them.

btw i'm from belgium, sadly this is the nokia country. ??? isn't that finland? nope it isn't
cause nokia has got a market share here of 69%! thats the most on the planet. and it once was close to 80! so you might say there are alot of dumb people living here :D

It's about that much here in Australia too. I'd say at least half the population owns a Nokia 3XXX phone...

in PAKISTAN
every 1 out of 10 people who sell fruits ,newspaper,items on bicycle in streets have nokia 3310.
these peoples r from lowest class of the economy,
and wat does middle lower, middle, upper lower and upper class
have u can easily guess.
it is the first nation in the south east asia to have a satellite phone service.
Series 60 mobile phones r among the most popular mobiles .

GSM is covering 75% of the country and increasing day by day
and now 3G is preparing its self for a go.

how thats for information;)

Dee, I used to live in Botswana and my family and I always drove to SA! We loved the place.... Mainly because of the actual shopping in actual malls, and the McDonald's! In Gaborone we didn't have McDonald's.
Africa really should be on the list.....
You have Antarctica and Outer Space on there?? Surely you could have space for Africa.

Unless, of course, you are talking about Bluetooth.

Japan just got its first Bluetooth handset. They have only had Bluetooth PDA type devices until now, to the best of my knowledge.
