With just over 50 million users and only a 4.5% penetration rate India has a long way to go but who can argue with Eric Schmidt. Maybe that’s why he is giving it a 5-10 year range. China has more that double the number of users at 111 million but could be passed in that time frame. Either way the number of Internet users in China and India will dwarf the number of users in the US very soon.
