• fixed telephony, which covers the operation of basic fixed-line networks and services (installation and rental fees, communications) and fixed IP telephony services: revenue figures include all retail income (with deduction, in the case of Europe, of the amounts paid to mobile operators for fixed-to-mobile calls)
• mobile services, which cover the operation of wireless communication networks (wireless telephony and wireless messaging); revenue figures include retail income but exclude revenue from the sale of equipment and interconnection charges).
