ABI Research’s team of analysts exploring CTIA 2010 have filed their stories, raising quite a few questions about what they’ve seen and heard. With the proliferation of mobile apps, how to developers differentiate their offerings and more importantly, how will users know what’s available – much less what they want? Will monthly cell phone bills really focus on how much data is used instead of how many voice minutes are used in just two years, as Sprint CEO Dan Hesse claims? Why do M2M module vendors resist the idea of a standard module? What are the implications of AT&T’s phased femtocell launch in the United States? Since the Moment has been available from Sprint for several months, what’s the significance of Samsung’s Moment announcement at CTIA 2010? Read our answers to these (and several more) questions in today’s report from CTIA 2010.
