Services Report Published by Wainhouse Research
Research report shows how video telephony and messaging services will meet
3G network realities and describes two scenarios for industry growth
3G network realities and describes two scenarios for industry growth
April 13, 2006, Brookline MA - "Personal Mobile Video Communications at the Launchpad: Liftoff or Shutdown for 3G Video Telephony & Messaging Markets & Technologies" is a new research report from Wainhouse Research that focuses on subscriber-generated video communications over high speed mobile networks. Proponents of 3G networks hope that video-rich applications will permit operators to recover sunk costs and reap a profit on their investments. The report finds that video telephony, video sharing, video mail and messaging, video blogging, and video contact centers hold promise for driving 3G network operator average revenue per user - but the technical and market challenges remain numerous and complex.
"With a high degree of uncertainty in this market, we describe two scenarios, 'slow growth' and 'liftoff,'" states report co-author Alan D. Greenberg, senior analyst and partner at Wainhouse Research. "If operators are effective in delivering and marketing new services, the market for media servers, application servers, gateways, toolkits, and professional services could approach $1 billion USD by 2010. If they fail, the market may follow our "slow growth" scenario and reach only $626 million."
"Operators cannot afford to ignore personal mobile video communications because their subscribers' behaviors are evolving and will include adoption of video," added Christine Perey, an independent consultant who co-authored the report. "Personal video telephony will gain momentum in select geographies, though it will become a mass market phenomenon only after 2010. Meanwhile, some vendors are hatching creative, new joint marketing programs and revenue-sharing business models."
The report includes a five-year forecast for each of the major technology areas and offers recommendations to both vendors and operators. Containing 40 figures and 27 tables, "Personal Mobile Video Communications at the Launchpad" profiles 33 companies involved in delivering video-specific infrastructure, end-to-end mobile network solutions, applications and media servers, toolkits, and services to 3G network operators. Companies profiled include Adamind, Alcatel, Brooktrout, COLLAB, Comverse, Convedia, CosmoCom, Dilithium Networks, DyLogic, Ericsson, Glenayre, Hotsip, HP, Huawei, iPoint-media, LogicaCMG, Mobeon, Netcentrex, Nextreaming, NMS Communications, Nokia, Openwave, PacketVideo, Philips Software, RADVISION, Sasken, Siemens, TANDBERG, Tecnomen, Ubiquity, Voxpilot, VoxSurf, and ZTE.
The report sells for $2995; executive summary and table of contents are available at www.wainhouse.com/reports .
