Top 10 Global Wireless Predictions for 2006

inCode released this report a few days ago but I just saw it. Here are the highlights they pull:

• A digital music innovator will launch a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) focused on mobile entertainment services
• Consumers will "“snack"” on mobile TV, which will not be a killer application
• A new business model for voice services will emerge, based on mobile Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP)
• At least one major network operator will abandon its retail brand and use wholesale access as an innovative business strategy
• China will become a telecommunications leader, and Chinese investors may buy a controlling interest in a wireless company
