Devices can make or break mobile broadband and related services. Operators price their services and build applications based on available devices. Devices attract users to new services. Having the right device can make a service a success, such as the iPhone, while the wrong device can kill a service, such as those available to the now defunct Cellular Digital Packet Data.

Cellular operators are looking at dual-mode phones and femtos, which are devices that could change how services are offered.
