Motorola: 3G handsets sales to fall below expectations

Reuters
March 11, 2003, 10:44 AM PT

U.S.-based Motorola said on Tuesday it expected to sell just a few hundred thousand of its handsets for fast third generation (3G) mobile phone networks this year. The modest forecast comes despite industry hopes that more than 20 operators throughout Europe will start selling third generation services to consumers this year, said Bob Schukai, Motorola's head of third generation products in Europe.

"We're not going to sell half a million of our 3G handsets this year, and probably not a quarter of a million phones. There are just not enough consumers and operators," he told Reuters in an interview at the fringes of CeBIT, the world's largest electronics trade show, in Hanover, Germany.
