2010: A year of so many promises
Loading ...
A friend and I keep talking about how magical 2010 is going to be. No matter what report you read, they promise 2010 will be the harbinger of wealth and prosperity for any market.For example:
“…mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) market will reach $10.7 billion in service revenue by 2010″
“..the IMS market ,…,investments on IMS equipment are expected to reach US$4.5bn”
“…WiMAX revenues increasing …to $3.3 billion in 2010″
“….consumer VoIP market revenues will reach $4.07 billion in 2010″
“…The mobile entertainment market …will grow to $59bn in 2010″
“….worldwide RFID spending to surpass $3 billion….”
“…mobile-Phone Premium Content Market to Reach $40 billion by 2010 ”
!!Awesome!!
Then, I actually searched:”What will fail in 2010″
And the response was:
More than half of global tier-one telecom carriers trying to establish new lines of business will fail through 2010
Is this irony or is this irony

Just means that we are in an optimistic period. Fewer doomsday seers around unlike 2001/2002? -MM
I think things will settle down when:
1. The Marketing folks calm down a bit.
2. The Architects give in a bit.
3. Someone actually tries it and sees if it works
In the meantime, as someone recently quipped to me: IMS, it’s a mess!
