E.U. Households with Only Mobile Phones, No Fixed Telephones

[11/29/07, 12:15am Update: I posted this via email but it stripped my links so added them back in.]

I recently posted about openness being the new post-black: openess is beyond being the new black, it should be the de facto standard practice.

Or as Fred puts it, openness is the new closed. We should be past it being the new anything but we're not there yet. We are moving in that direction.

Openness in the mobile world is important for a lot of reasons (see my post above or read about the recent Verizon announcement) and this Economist graphic only underscores the fundamental shift and the reasons for pushing openess.
