carried over the top of an IP-based network.

3G;•Patchy WiFi availability•Relatively high cost of WiFi-
enabled phones•Falling price of switched
mobile telephony
In the past - modest revenues, $50 to $100

•Enablers:•A rise in the installed base of the
Wi-Fi-enabled mobile phones;•A rise in WiFi hotspots (public
hotspots to number a quarter of a million at the start of 2010.
•Falling prices for data packages are causing switched voice to have an increasing premium over mobile VoIP
•Drivers:•Capability to broadcast to friends•Offer unlimited storage and
search•Voicemail storage – messages

The growth in of the subscription music services is likely to be because of greater levels of functionality, and becoming accessible via more platforms:

“A typical day in 2010 is unlikely to feel much different to today. We will probably not be teleporting breakfast or using quantum computers, nor will we be watching holographic TV or travelling to work in flying cars. A
lucky few will likely be flying to the edge of space but for the rest of us, change will probably be more subtle, with TMT advances pervading ever more deeply into
our daily lives.
“Indeed the greater ubiquity of TMT – from the car to the classroom, the living room to the office and
essentially everywhere in between is likely to be the most noticeable change.
