Profiling Leaders and Laggards in the Global 3G M-Business Applications

Preliminary evidence indicates that the distributions of 3G subscribers across globe and operators and associated revenues are likely to be significantly different from the 2G networks. This paper draws upon early evidence of supplier and consumer responses to 3G mobile services to explain the factors driving the diffusion and adoption of 3G mobile communications and inter-operator and inter-country heterogeneities.
