Global CDMA sales for LG were 10.5 million units vaulting LG to 23.5 percent market share worldwide.

“As LG Mobile Phones continues to produce innovative handsets that meet the demand of the current consumer marketplace, we are proud to have secured the number two spot for phone shipments in North America,” said Juno Cho, president, LG Electronics MobileComm U.S.A.
