NBI/Michael Sone Associates’
Canadian Mobile Wireless Device and Network Equipment
Market Report, 2007 Edition is the companion to our
Canadian Mobile Wireless Communications Services Market
Report. The reports remain the most comprehensive studies
published on this industry, examining in detail, for both the
equipment and service segments, topics such as market size and
growth, distribution strategies, product development, pricing,
technology issues and usage patterns. Section 1 of this report
consists of a detailed executive summary that provides an overview
of the industry in Canada as well as an analysis of the key
elements that will define the future. Sections 2 and 3 respectively
are devoted to the traditional handset and hybrid sectors with
reference to the latest technologies and the equipment vendors’
particular strategies. Prominence is given to detailed profiles
of the major device manufacturers and discussions on their activities
and future plans as the industry moves toward the next generation
of wireless communications. This is followed in Section 4 with
a summary of the PC Card market. A new Section 5 (published
as an addendum to this report) discusses the issues surrounding
current and future infrastructure technologies from both the
service provider and manufacturer standpoints.
Six exhibits that provide shipment and installed base data
for device manufacturers, including projections to 2010 and
segmentation by technology, support the substantive and comprehensive
discussion. The handset shipment data contained therein is the
result of exhaustive primary-sourced research and is, in our
opinion, the best available view of the Canadian market.
