Wireless Data Card Modems: Low Data Caps, High Recurring Costs, Poor Ecomony = No Thanks
comScore’s press release…
…reports that after 6 consecutive quarters of double digit growth (between 11% and 28%) starting in Q2 2007, sales of 2G/3G data cards slowed to 5% in Q4 2008.
As their report summary notes:
…deceleration in subscriber growth during Q4 2008 coinciding with the economic downturn, an indication that mobile broadband service may still be seen by many as a luxury rather than a necessity
There’s nothing wrong with the cards, of course.
