Chinese mobile mania

There’s a great article on the Chinese mobile market on Contagious by the director of digital strategy at Ogilvy.
It’s primarily focused on the emerging mobile ad market, but what caught my eye were these stats:
* Chinese mobile subscriber base is rapidly approaching half a billion
* There are five million new subscribers every month
* Mobile users in China outnumber internet users three to one
I’m no expert, but it looks to me like China is well on the way to becoming the new Japan.

Five million people a month. That's more than the population of Sydney or Melbourne! Be afraid, be very afraid.
I can't even comprehend those figures. Amazing.
Although I couldn't help but think that contagious magazine's grey text on blue gradient background makes it a real effort to read.
I hate when you get to the bottom of an article and all you can think about is the container it came in.
