Martin Wilson over at Indigo 102 hosts the Carnival for the first time. Martin’s summary (one of the best written I’ve seen) expertly outlines the posts and their key takeaways. From mobile metrics in the UK to Alcatel Lucent’s developer platform to Nokia’s smart move – it’s all at COM #210.

Among the highlights:

• Tomi Ahonen is back with more stats and more energy (and perhaps more coffee J). His post includes a breakdown of market share according to handset maker, as well as operating systems.
• Mobile strategist and esteemed colleague Carl Martin cuts through some of the mobile hype and urges us to get the basics right FIRST.
• Mark Westling of Sigma makes a strong case for involving the operators and asks why more mobile operators aren’t in on the action.
