Jim: Gartner and IDC publish quarterly mobile phone market share by vendors; however, their publicly available reports only list the top five, with the remainder grouped as Other, which would include Panasonic.

From what I remember, several years ago Panasonic stopped manufacturing their mobile phones in Japan, and basically dropped out of the Japan market which was a key market for them.

Currently almost all of their phones are manufactured in India. For some more information on Panasonic and the India market:
