Bluetooth-enabled Equipment Shipments to Hit 800 million this Year

IMS Research has tracked the market for bluetooth technology since its inception, and has recently published the eighth edition of its annual bluetooth technology report. In this new report, IMS continues to forecast healthy growth. However, caution should be exercised over the ultimate attach rates of bluetooth technology in the total cellular handset market. As cellular handsets become more prevalent in less affluent markets, there is a growing demand for low-cost handsets that have only basic functionality.

The report reveals that Wireless USB is predicted to be the first PAL to market, taking an early lead while UWB/bluetooth draft specifications are finalised.
