Vodafone to Ring in 3G Changes

Vodafone will reveal its 3G strategy next week, but analysts agree that the improved service will not necessarily translate into increased revenue. “Launching a new handset range is one thing. Getting customers to spend more on 3G services than they do on existing services is another,” said one analyst.
Worse for Vodafone is the prediction that 3G is dead in the water. “3G has come too late,” said Woolcock. “The mobile communications story for the second half of the decade will not be the new 3G networks but wireless internet.”
