I'm seeking statistics about programming languages for cell phones. Is there any information about how many cell phones have Java, Android, Symbian, Windows Mobile, etc?

Take a look at this article: Google Android smacks down Windows Mobile in latest Gartner data.

Per Gartner as quoted in wikipedia, as of May 19 2010,
Symbian continues to dominate the worldwide smartphone market with 44.3 percent of market share with RIM in second at 19.4 and Apple’s iPhone OS in third with 15.4. Microsoft moves down to fifth behind Android with 6.8 percent of market share.
Of course, this is about phone operating systems, not languages (you ask about languages but then mostly list operating systems, except for Java which is a language usable on almost all of them except iPhone OS, and mysteriously tag this as "Python"...?!).

Off the top of my head:
C/C++ - Symbian, Android, iPhone
Java/JavaME - Android, Blackberry, Symbian and Windows Mobile (not sure about 7)
Objective-C - iPhone (15% of market)
