Gartner Research Director Carolina Milanesi told Dow Jones that consumers worldwide are expected to purchase as many as 190 million smartphones this year, representing an increase of 52% compared to last year.

From a revenue standpoint, 190 million smartphones represents about 15%, or $65 billion-worth, of the total 1.28 billion handsets expected to be sold this year.

In 2012, Milanesi expects smartphone unit sales to reach over 700 million of the total 1.8 billion handset market; that's 65%, or $200 billion-worth, of the total $312 billion mobile phone market at that time.

Once the .sis file is installed, the software reportedly automatically dials a premium-rate international phone number without the owners’ knowledge.

This is huge news. As you may already know Nokia currently holds the controlling interest in Symbian, however  not satisfied with that they are going to acquire a full 100%. The net cash outlay from Nokia to purchase the approximately 52% of Symbian Limited shares it does not already own will be approximately EUR 264 million.

I have written numerous times (here and here) about the very promising browser “Skyfire” which should be a household name for most of you. In case you still haven’t heard about this promising application, I will explain in short words why “Skyfire” causes so much intention in the Symbian world.
