Here's an interesting statistic: While the iPhone is popular, Nokia "sells more phones every week than Apple has sold since the iPhone's introduction" (italics ours). Guess there's a difference between being popular and global.
The above statistic, from Charter Equity Research analyst Edward Snyder, was mentioned in a Times article on the upcoming iPhone launch, which has been widely forecast for June 9th. That's a little over a week away--or in Nokia terms, a few million phones.

I still consider the Nokia 3390 to be the pinnacle of cell phone design. (Little bastards are hard to find these days, too.)
Apple has one phone, Nokia has over 10 models.
