Nearly 2/3 of phones bought in Germany are smartphones
"With more than one mobile phone per person in Germany, it is a strong mobile market, but the potential for growth exists. German mobile consumers are connected and getting smarter. Nearly two out of every three (63%) mobile purchases in Germany are smartphones. Today, 30 percent of Germans own a smartphone, compared with 45 percent in the U.K., 40 percent in the U.S., and 36 percent in Russia.
And with 83 percent of German smartphone users contract-billed by a carrier, higher monthly spending patterns follow: users spend an average of 1.5 more than feature phone users on their bills. The advanced user interface is also prompting more sophisticated communication. Over 65 percent of smartphone owners use email and half are active social network users."

Note - amusingly Google translates 'Vkontakte' as 'Facebook'. I've corrected this.
Update - VK, the English language version claims that the site has 112m members

The online & offline habits of teen and tween girls
"Media Habits & Relationships
'Being with friends' (in the real world) is what girls across all age groups (66%) enjoy doing, followed by 'shopping' and 'listening to music'. And when it comes to shortened attention spans, the research shows that a third (30%) of Gen Z girls regularly watch TV shows online for longer than 10 minutes.
Play & Games
Gaming has become a commonplace activity among a relatively new 'casual gamers' user group, but has the market now reached saturation? Not where girls are concerned. Half (49%) of older teens say they never spend time with portable gaming devices or console games. Gaming is more entrenched in younger girls lives, with 35% of 12 and under personally owning a portable gaming device. Social gaming habits, such as playing Farmville, CItyVille, Cafe World and Sims regularly, are prevalent, although vary depending on country: Brazil and Poland top the list (41% and 40%) for girls playing MMOGs (massive multiplayer online games) with Germany and France the lowest (21% and 22%). In the UK, 34% of girls play regularly and in the US the figure is 29%.
Spending Power
Girls like to shop - scoring it as their second favorite activity - but does their lack of plastic hamper their spending money online? It appears not. One in five girls aged 12 and under regularly visit online shopping sites, rising to one in four once they become teenagers. The majority of teenage girls are still buying products on the high street or at a shopping center rather than online, but this shopping medium is far from off limits - 13% of Generation Z girls regularly purchase products online regardless of age.
Highlights:
Under 12s
- 64% use a gaming console
- Only 35% put listening to music in their top 5 activities
- More than 60% own a mobile phone
- More than 60% never read a newspaper
- Prefer instant messenger to social networks
13-15 year olds
- More than 45% say listening to music is one of their favorite
activities
- Almost 80% own a mobile
- YouTube, followed by Facebook, are their favorite social networks
- 25% regularly visit online shopping sites although only 13%
Purchase products
- Begin using mobile web and mobile social networks
16-18 year olds
- Most interested in music - nearly 50% list it in their top 5
activities
- Nearly 80% own a mobile
- Are most likely to read newspapers
- Are least likely to use a gaming console
- The heaviest media users
- More likely to use social networks rather than instant messages"
