for example wrote about it like this on 18 February 2009: "if you are interested in mobile statistics you really
need to pick up a copy of Tomi Ahonen's
Almanac 2009. It's Tomi's latest
eBook, a compilation of mobile
statistics. The almanac is full of hard to find information like: The total
number of mobile Internet users: 1.05 billion, which in 2008 for the first time surpassed the total number
of PC Web users (1 billion). Average mobile phone replacement cycle: 14 months;
Percentage of mobile content revenue derived from adult entertainment: 5% in
2008."
Russell Buckley the European MD of Admob and the Chairman of the
Mobile Marketing Association, who blogs at Mobhappy, wrote this about the Almanac on 13 Feb
2009 in this way: "Whenever I need a
stat, Tomi seems to have it, so I'd highly recommend this for any aspiring
mobile fact junkie. And no, I don't get commission or anything grubby."
