Nokia representatives estimate Lumia handsets outsell the iPhone 3:1 in that region.

” We estimate that by the end of the year Lithuania has to be about 100 thousand Nokia Lumia users,” a Nokia’s sales representative said.

“The growing Windows Phone user base shows the potential of the system . This should draw the attention of application makers -while the Windows Phone store competition is relatively small, it is best to start programming right now – early developers always have higher chances to create a success story . As a first steps programmers are welcome to go at to next week’s  AppCamp App Workshop ” – said AppCamp CEO Tom Martuni .
