Abstract
Summary
Wi-Fi and hotspots have become commonplace; however, resistance to paying for
access remains high. Over the last 12 months hotspot operators have gone
through some profound changes to survive in a market where demand increases
while willingness to pay for the service decreases.
In-Stat' s 2008 hotspot market includes the following:
- End-user data on how and where the service is used.
- End-user data around willingness to pay for hotspot services.
- Supply-side analysis on how operators are changing their business
strategies.
- Global forecasts for hotspot venues and access revenues.
