The mobile broadband market is gaining velocity, driven by the twin engines of HSDPA and EV-DO with more power yet to come from Mobile WiMAX.

There are already more than 200 commercial mobile broadband networks worldwide with more than 50 million subscribers using hundreds of different devices. And rapid adoption of these technologies will lead it to dominate the broadband market by 2011, when services based on HSPA, EV-DO, WiMAX and other systems will have more subscribers than services based on DSL, cable and FTTH.
