3 out of 4 BRIC countries will account for 60% of global revenue growth
Rating: China top, followed by India then Brazil – Russia out of it

He reckons that India, China and Brazil will present the greatest growth opportunities. So Russia has dropped out from the BRIC nations, then?

Mobile data growth in the West will not be strong enough to avert mobile industry contraction
Severe contraction is possible, with data growth dangerously slow and network costs unhealthily low, says Analysys Mason
Press release
October 1st 2012. Instead of worrying about the impact of a mobile data explosion, mobile operators in the West should worry about ensuring that it happens in the first place, according to a new report from Analysys Mason, which forecasts worldwide mobile data traffic. The report indicates that the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of volume of mobile data traffic will be below 50 per cent for the period 2011–2016, and just 40.8 per cent for 2012–2017. The report – ‘Wireless network traffic worldwide: forecasts and analysis 2012–2017‘ – argues that growth in mobile data traffic will not be enough to stop a contraction within the mobile industry in western economies. Data revenue growth is already offset by tariff rebalancing, and together with the loss of core voice and messaging revenue to over-the-top players, and some erosion of operators’ position in device distribution, this contraction could be severe.

Core differentiator for BlackBerries is now a commodity says Analysys Mason
Rating: The smartphone’s keyboard isn’t key any more
Speculation is rife following the announcement that BlackBerry’s owner – RIM, has called in bankers to conduct a strategic review. This is what RIM’s CEO, Thorsten Heins, actually said … “After the release of our year-end financial results, we engaged JP Morgan Securities and RBC Capital Markets to assist the company and our board of directors in reviewing RIM’s business and financial performance.” He also stressed that, “We will continue to spend and hire in key areas such as those associated with the launch of BlackBerry 10, and those tied to the growth of our application developer community.” However, according to Analysys Mason, the problem lies with the fact that smartphone users now care less about having a keyboard and more about being able to play back media content.

Analysys Mason highlights importance of data in tariffs
Rating: We’ll spend 40 more minutes using our handset
The latest study from Analysys Mason – ‘ A day in the life: profiling consumer telecoms and media usage and value’ has highlighted the importance of data as an element in consumers’ mobile phone tariffs.

So instead of texting or speaking over their mobile phones, these consumers will be employing the handset’s data facilities instead. Written by Martin Scott and Tom Rebbeck, the full report costs €3,300 and can be purchased from here. Continue reading
