Wireless and Cable Voice Services: |
This timely report from Technology Futures, Inc., an internationally-recognized leader in telecom forecasting, addresses the questions of the magnitude and timing of the impact of wireless and cable competition on the LECs' wireline voice services. The authors, Vanston and Rogers, analyze and forecast the:
- Impacts of wireless voice services.
- Impacts of cable voice services.
- Impacts of wireless and cable voice services combined.
- Likely strategies that the LECs may employ for surviving and thriving in the face of this new competition.
"What is different about wireless and CATV voice services is that they have the potential to reach true mass-market status not only very quickly but at favorable costs" states Dr. Vanston. "Further, wireless has the extra dimension of mobility that wireline service inherently cannot provide, and wireless services do not require regulatory, legislative, or legal approval to compete."
