One possible scenario for the telecoms industry during the current economic
slowdown is that fixed-to-mobile substitution (FMS) will be accelerated as
consumers reduce their communications bill by cutting their fixed line in favour
of mobile services. With mobile broadband deals now more readily available and

operators could not only lose further fixed voice revenues but valuable
broadband revenues as well. Ovum therefore commissioned a survey of over 8,000
consumers to find out their plans.
