We have been tracking the performance of the Nokia Lumia sales in Finland using secondary sources such as Statcounter for some time now, but now for the first time we have had a carrier comment on sales directly.
Elisa, the biggest carrier in Finland, has released their sales figures for February, and it shows the Lumia 800 being the best-seller in both the business and consumer segment, with pretty good performance by the Lumia 710 also, which only had a few days of sales.
Elisa notes good sales were not just related to a launch day boost, but that sales has been steady throughout the month, and that fortunately they only ran out of stock early in the month due to servicing pre-orders.
They note sales should remain strong with the introduction of the Lumia 610 in late Spring and the Lumia 900 in Summer providing a range of pricing levels for consumers.
Elisa Director Jan Virkki said Lumia sales to date supports the fact that Windows Phone will be one of the key operating systems.
