Cultural differences in cellphone use

Here's a great little collection of infoporn. Cellphone giant Nokia commissioned an international study to discover the differences in how people in different cultures use cellphones. A couple random findings:
In Tokyo, virtually no one carries their phone on a belt pouch, but in Ji Lin City more than a third of all people do.In Seoul you wouldn't be caught dead without a strap on your cellphone but in Kampala put a strap on your phone and you'll be laughed right out of the bar.
The short, but visually attractive, report is available as a PDF. There's also a web-based summary.
(Thanks future perfect)
