Mobile Brodband Data Growth - in Finland

In case anyone doubted the staggeringly high growth of mobile data over the last year or so, I came across some fascinating (and very detailed) statistics on mobile data in Finland (thanks to Dean Bubley for pointing these out).

Stunningly:

-          Total data traffic in ‘07 was 13 x larger in volume than the previous year

-          92% of data traffic was from computers rather than phones

-          This share of traffic was from just 2.1% of devices
