Sales records typically don’t stand for too long without being overtaken by the next best thing, but somehow, Nokia’s el cheapo 1100 handset has reportedly racked up “over 200 million sales” since it launched in 2003. You heard right, this low-end candybar has put the 100 million iPods, 50 million RAZRs, 10 million Chocolates, and 115 million PlayStation 2 consoles to shame in terms of sheer units moved.
That is a LOT of cheap plastic. Though not the most sophisticated phone around, it’s still quite an amazing accomplishment. Too bad the N-Gage didn’t take off like that.
