In Europe, the average use of the mobile phone is about five minutes a day. At the same time roughly 85 percent of voice traffic goes through fixed networks.

ARPU is declining: At the end of 2000, EMC says world average ARPU was $39.31, down from nearly $60 in December 1997.

I cant figure out why wireless operators cant seem to understand the implications of these two facts. The killer application for 3G spectrum is still going to be voice. Why in the world should they be seeing declining ARPU when 85% of their potential market is still untapped?

Thanks for the statistics....
