Wireless broadband revenues will multiply by a whopping 24 times by the year 2015, according to a telecoms analyst firm. Analysys Mason said in a statement, the global wireless broadband industry is predicted to generate some US$784 billion in service revenues by that year, bolstered by service and pricing options that will evolve around expected developments in the technology. The report predicted the number of wireless broadband customers will hit 2.1 billion by then, with developing regions expected to make up 57 percent of that. Presently, these regions account for just 17 percent of the global audience, explaining that the strong growth will happen because of their lack of fixed-line infrastructure.
