The number of CDMA mobile customers in CALA (Caribbean and Latin America) has plummeted by almost 13m in the year to 31st March 2008, ending on 50.6m, after a seventh successive quarter of decline in Q1 08. The loss of customers widened to 3.72m in the first three months of 2008, from 1.61m in Q1 2007 and 2.73m in Q1 2007, although this was still below the loss of over 4m incurred in Q3 2007. As a result, the share of the national total for the technology fell from 19.8% to 12.7% - just half the share seen less than three years ago. more

Nortel: The dilemmas of wireless broadband adoption

That cost can easily translate into a prohibitively high cost of the service for the end consumer. more
