PRLog (Press Release) –
Apr 22, 2008 – A recent study states that beside mobile TV, applications such as video telephony, video and music download offers are the other most prominent services delivered through 3G/UMTS networks from major mobile carriers in the world: - Around 80% of the carriers provide video telephony, about 60% offer video downloads and/or music downloads; - 70% provide mobile TV as well as video and/or music download service; - Only 35% of operators who offer video telephony have a video messaging service in their portfolio. Taking all this into consideration the InfoCom report on mobile data will highlight various aspects which are determinant for the future evolution of this dynamic market segment. This includes issues such as the identification of future possible services, checking user friendliness of service offers, assess the development and success of the most relevant mobile data applications; a particular focus will be laid on applications around UMTS, its coverage, number of devices sold, customer figures, overall level of usage. The final and the core part of the study is the assessment of the market potential of the various mobile data applications (SMS, MMS, mobile TV, etc.); our experts developed scenarios in terms of user numbers, revenues, ARPU, etc. One of the objectives within this section is also to figure out at which level mobile data revenues will stimulate overall mobile revenues, and what are the risk factors. 2 hours workshop/conference included.
