Mobile computing and wireless networking market has taken off - some research firms expect it to become a 150 billion dollar market (year 2005-2012) if you include wireless data services, mobile devices, application software, systems integration and related services. A study  in 2004 estimate wireless data market itself to explode to 30 billion market by 2006.

The biggest challenge that we face in sizing the market is to define what is included and what is not included by a particular analyst in his/her study. The biggest skew is inserted by wireless handsets. If you include second and third generation handsets, the market becomes huge. During 2004, the number of handsets sold world-wide was 440 million units worldwide. At $200 unit price, this represents $88 billion. Since then, annual cellular handset sale numbers have hovered around 450 million mark. If you add to that, wireless network infrastructure market (base stations, etc.), it may be another $40-50 billion. We suggest to market planners and forecasters that they should start to include cellular handsets in mobile computing market sizing because primary use of these handsets is for voice, photo, and now wireless data. We now, are seeing an increasing percentage of advanced handsets that utilized wireless data applications. This percentage will  reach 10% for the next several years - wireless Internet is a major application for industry growth.

With Mergers and Acquisitions this industry will expand rapidly in the U.S. which has been behind in services and applications being offered in the rest of the world.
