Abstract
"The U.K. mobile communications market is one of the most mature in Western Europe, and is highly competitive. The market is saturated at well past 100% penetration, and operators are now heavily focused on retention and growing the value of existing customers, rather than customer acquisition. Mobile broadband is growing rapidly in the market, and could represent a way for operators to shore up declining voice ARPUs," said Jonathan Arber, senior research analyst for IDC' s European Consumer Wireless and Mobile Communications Service.
