and support high data rates – One Russian WiMAX operator reported in
March that handsets averaged about
1Gb/month while Notebooks average15Gb/Month
– These devices will support 4G and 3Gtechnologies for additional roaming capability
– These Devices may be subsidized from thecarrier or sold directly from the vendor (i.e.Dell)

part of any future deployments – Not necessarily for revenue, but
for the customer experience

• Devices will continue to be multi-band and
multi-mode capable• Voice will continue to be a less important
service across the wireless network
