In this issue:
Home networking services: The battle to stake a claim on networked services in the home is intensifying as operators’ IPTV strategies take off. More partnerships are set to evolve as a result.
Next-Gen network funding: The EC wants operators to share the cost and risk of building next-generation access networks, but competitive operators on all sides fear the consequences.
Scandinavian markets: Some think Scandinavian operators are focusing too much on efficiencies and not enough on innovation in order to maintain the power structure in the region.
Mobile TV services: Operators are still struggling to make consumers pay for mobile TV services, but digital switchover could provide a boost to service deployment globally.
Mobile broadband networks: Operators are moving ahead with plans to deploy long-term evolution (LTE) networks, but spectrum conces as well as costs could hamper some services.
