Understand Global Cellular Video Devices As Internet Video Expands the Market & Forecasts Estimate Strong Growth for Devices Providing a Mobile Video Service

Posted on: Monday, 13 October 2008, 12:00 CDT

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/dd20c4/global_cellular_vi) has announced the addition of the "Global Cellular Video Devices: Internet Video Expands the Market" report to their offering.

Until recently, "mobile video" referred to content delivered to cellphones over the 3G network or out-of-band broadcast systems such as ISDB-T, DVB-H, or MediaFLO. However, the recent surge of Internet-delivered video means nearly any mobile device with an Internet connection can display video.

Even though cellphones and smartphones will remain the predominant method of viewing mobile video, In-Stat forecasts over 160 million devices will be sold in the coming five years that provide mobile video service over networks now in exclusive use by cellphones.

In addition:

This research includes worldwide device shipment forecasts for video-connected:

-- Computing devices, such as mobile Internet devices (MIDs), ultra-mobile PCs (UMPCs), and laptop/notebook computers.

-- Cellphones and smartphones, including the RIM BlackBerry, Apple iPhone, and smartphones having Symbian, Windows Mobile, Palm OS, Android, and Linux operating systems.

-- Consumer electronics products, including personal navigation devices (PNDs), portable media players (PMPs), and handheld games, such as the PSP and Nintendo DS.

The forecasts cover devices that will be able to provide mobile video from mobile operators (including MobiTV, GoTV and VCast), out-of-band cellular video (ISDB-T, DVB-H, MediaFLO, DMB-T and others), as well as devices that access the Internet over 3G networks.
