[00:09.55]21st Century Mobile Phones
[00:12.69]The latest research done
[00:14.40]on the mobile phone industry
[00:15.94]shows that China is now ahead of the USA
[00:18.68]as the world's largest mobile phone market.
[00:21.73]In fact, it was recently reported
[00:23.56]by the Ministry of information
[00:25.36]that one in every four Chinese had a mobile
[00:28.56]phone at the end of 2004.
[00:31.30]A decade ago,only business people had mobile
[00:33.83]phones and they were large
[00:35.65]and heavy with bad reception.
[00:37.83]They were also expensive.Compared to those,
[00:41.10]what we see now are new phones
[00:42.76]with superb reception, which are light
[00:44.98]and small to carry.
[00:47.08]Perhaps it was this improved technology
[00:49.21]and smrt look that helped mobile phones break
[00:51.89]into the mass market,
[00:53.48]but th main factor is price.
[00:56.02]As demand for mobile phones has increased,
[00:58.39]the cost of the phones and calls has fallen,
[01:01.29]making mobile phones more accessible
[01:03.44]the the average person.
[01:07.59]In China, the Ministry of Information
[01:09.98]has reported that the number of mobile phone
[01:11.89]users has already reached 296 million.
