WIRELESS MARKET STRATEGIES, OPPORTUNITIES, AND FORECASTS 2000 - 2006


The wireless equipment vendors have addressed wireless Internet markets. Vendors have strengthened their position for next generation wireless networking. A number of strategic investments, key customer contracts, and industry agreements have been made to further open the way for next generation mobile systems.
U.S. markets for handsets at $5.7 billion were led by Nokia with a dominant market position with 55% market share. Motorola has a strong position in U.S. markets with 39% market share in 2000.
Worldwide and U.S. markets are expected to have strong growth as penetration rates continue to increase. The affluent users in the U.S. are likely to choose to replace existing handsets with low SARs with new headset units that have virtually no SARs.
Wireless markets are poised to provide extensive voice coverage and achieve rapid growth worldwide. Global wireless markets at $103.5 billion in 2000 are expected to reach $252.8 billion by 2006

New Generation Of Wireless Products
The new generation of wireless products relate to the convergence of voice and data markets. There is a convergence of telephone handsets and handheld computers.
The wireless industry is emerging as a dominant force in communications systems. Wireless systems once thought to peak at 25% penetration have a well-defined market opportunity. User penetration is expected exceed 90% of the population in developed regions.
The number of wireless subscribers at 541.8 million in the end of 2000 is forecast to reach 1.8 billion by 2006. Infrastructure spending will increase disproportionately to subscriber growth as companies seek to achieve broad systems coverage.
Wireless data markets will grow very slowly until there is broad systems coverage and calls are not constantly interrupted.
