Mobile broadband forecasts favoured established 3G paths

A November 2006 forecast expected mobile broadband use to grow strongly by 2010, with HSPA and EV-DO expected to carry most connections.

What the report described

The report contrasted those established cellular paths with much smaller anticipated use of WiMax. It linked operator data offers to laptop cards and mobile access to familiar internet applications.

How to read the claim

Forecast totals and technology shares are kept as forecasts made in 2006, not later market results.
