Abstract
By 2009, there will be over 155 million business IP end points in operation. Over 37% of these
business IP end points will be wireless. Even more staggering, 73% of all consumer VoIP subscribers
worldwide will be using a wireless handset by 2009. Wireless IP end points hold the potential to
drive the mass migration of PSTN wireline subscribers to VoIP.
This report takes a comprehensive look at how IP end points are impacting both business and
consumer telecom markets. Some of the market issues addressed include: Will standards-based SIP
phones and wireless smartphones replace business desk sets? Is there a market for wired IP phones in
the consumer market? Is it possible that VoIP may turn out to be more of a mobile service than a
wireline service? In-Stat combines IP end point market forecasts, in-depth analysis and market
survey data to shed light on the future VoIP market. |
