Dear Sir/Madame,
2005 will see the first steps towards unlocking a new growth segment in mobile subscriptions- handsets below the $40 mark will come to emerging markets. The price in itself may not be something new, but when we take a look at which features are being offered, Ultra Low Cost Handsets are becoming an attractive option for operators and their customers for the first time.
Informa Telecoms & Media’s Ultra Low-Cost Handset Conference in Amsterdam (28-29 June 2005) will be the perfect networking opportunity to discuss how this market can be developed into an astonishing growth segment.
