Projected future use of mobile carrier technologies
Uncertainty was higher still when questioned on the technologies expected to be in use in two years' time, with more than half of all enterprises in the survey unable to respond. However, what was clear was the continuing relentless surge by these mobile users towards higher bandwidth.

In two years the use of 3G or 3.5G technology is expected to be the norm. More than half of all respondents able to give an opinion on this matter anticipate making use of these high-speed technologies for mobile applications within their organisations. Current use of GSM (2G) and GPRS (2.5G) technology is expected to fall.

Figure 3: Mobile network technologies in future use

Q29 Which of the following carrier technologies are currently employed for mobile applications in your organisation? And which do you expect to be used in the near future (next two years)? (multiple response)
Base: All knowledgeable respondents; Total: 168
