However, market growth is expected to be relatively modest during 2000 and 2001 because of the inevitable delays in service roll-out by the new players. With Iridium Inc.'s failure to cultivate the business market, all focus is now on the vertical markets. All operators are developing a range of products specifically tailored for various niche applications. In particular, the maritime sector?fishing vessels, the small boat market and cruise ships?is one of the most promising niche applications and this market segment expects to account for more than 400,000 terminals by 2004. The potential for a sizeable business roaming market still exists in some parts of the world. The key to unlocking this market will be attractively priced and compact handsets marketed as value-added options to existing cellular service plans. Additional information on this market is available in the report, "Global Mobile Satellite Markets,? from Dataquest (Egham, UK). This report examines the markets for mobile satellite services in each region and gives in-depth analysis on the major players in the market. For more information, call 408-468-8009.
