Despite the downturn in the economy, revenue from cellular services continues to rise. It was up 13 percent from 2007 to 2008, and it could go up around 29 percent between 2008 and 2010. The biggest gain could come from 2009 through 2013, when broadband revenues are forecasted to more than double. With new technologies like WiMax and LTE entering the fray, operators could have a shiny new source of revenue. The only issue will be keeping the networks up and running at high capacity. If they can do that, carriers will be rewarded with billions from customers looking for an always-on, always-available Internet signal which replicates desktop broadband speeds.
