The continued rapid growth in mobile subscriptions has exceeded even the mobile industry's own estimates. Since the early 1990's Nokia have seen voice go truly wireless and mobile phones evolve from voice centric to feature driven devices. Earlier this summer, Nokia sold their one billionth mobile phone - a Nokia 1100 sold in Nigeria. Here are some facts shared by Nokia.

- Since Mobira Senator car phone introduction in 1982 to the Nokia 2652 introduction today, Nokia has introduced around 400 phone models to all major analogue and digital standards.

- Nokia's first iconic product, the Nokia 2100 series that was introduced in 1994, sold nearly 20 million units in its time.

- The world's best-selling phone, the Nokia 3310 / 3330 sold 126 million units from its launch in 2000 until its "retirement" earlier this year. For comparison, the combined total of all Nokia phones sold between 1991 and 1998 is 100 million.

- If all the Nokia 3310/3330 phones sold were laid end-to-end, the line would stretch from Helsinki, Finland to Santiago, Chile - over 13,500 kilometers.

- In 1991 Nokia sold 800 000 phones. In 2004, it manufactured 207.7 million phones, which equals 6.5 phones per second.

- Nokia consumes 100 billion components on annual level. On average, one phone includes up to 400 components.
