Mobile Data Traffic Up Threefold

Ericsson said that its measurement of actual traffic in networks around the world shows that global mobile data traffic has nearly tripled in the past year, growing more than 10 times as fast as voice. However, mobile broadband still accounts for only 10% of total mobile subscriptions worldwide, the Stockholm-based company added.

According to Ericsson, "global measured mobile data traffic" was nearly 225,000 terabytes per month during the second quarter of 2010. Ericsson also said it has now delivered two million base stations (out of an industry-wide installed base of five million). source: Ericsson statement
