While some elements of the mobile market continue to contract in light of the economic downturn, other signs point to a resurgence. Total mobile handset sales continue to decline (although at a slower rate than in 2008), however, smartphones sales have shown strong growth. Mobile broadband subscribers also are increasing at a rapid rate, expected to grow from 225 million in March 2009 to 250 million by year-end, according to some estimates.
