US wireless data market continues to grow rapidly. As expected, for the first
time, the top three US carriers (Verizon, Cingular, and Sprint Nextel) crossed
$1B/quarter in data revenues. US is the only country with 3 carriers in the;”$1B/quarter” data revenues group (6 carriers are in this group, only NTT DoCoMo is in the exclusive
over $2B/quarter; club). This takes the overall US wireless data service revenue tally to over $10.5B for the year (compared to $8.6B for entire 2005) and is expected to cross $15B in 2006.
