However, low-cost commodity hardware, as well as the growth of open platform make them appear not prominent. Meanwhile, the channel slowed the action of compression stock, so that despite an increase in sales, but average selling price remained stagnant. We expect average selling prices of mobile phones in 2010 will continue to face pressure. "

With so many cell phone makers and industry observers have called for a reduction through the channel sales, our data show that in 2009 mobile phone sales will be flat in 2008. "
