Begin forwarded message: From: Edward Vielmetti <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: January 25, 2006 9:43:52 PM EST To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: China will pass US in Broadband Lines by late 2006 Dave, for IP, from The Bandwidth Report by Andy King at Web Site Optimization http://www.websiteoptimization.com/bw/0601/ At its current growth rate of over 90% per year, China will pass the US in total broadband subscribers by late 2006 to become the largest broadband country in the world. The US has fallen to 19th overall in household broadband penetration, and is in danger of being passed by Slovenia in early 2007. Israel leads all Middle Eastern and African countries, and is the third country overall in broadband penetration. Hong Kong leads the Pacific Rim, with a broadband penetration rate of over 73%. Meanwhile, in December 2005 the US passed 65% in broadband penetration among active Internet users. -- Edward Vielmetti in Ann Arbor, MI 48104 +1 734 276 5910 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.vacuumgroup.com ------------------------------------- You are subscribed as [email protected] To manage your subscription, go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/?listname=ip Archives at: http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/interesting-people/
