Our industry is growing and evolving
Worldwide uptake for high-speed wireless services continues to grow rapidly. Qualcomm is working on many fronts to support our industry partners in the effort to upgrade existing networks, deploy new ones and ensure a steady supply of advanced devices, applications and services that fuel market momentum.
Analysts estimate that more than 2.5 billion people will be using mobile data services by 2011 and the revenue produced from these services will account for 23% of total service revenue worldwide.* We believe the growing availability of 3G-enabled devices will accelerate the demand for many wireless data services on a global basis and thus lead to an increased replacement rate of 3G mobile devices. Affordable wireless broadband data connectivity is important to the consumer and enterprise, and its demand will continue to drive the evolution of wireless standards.
