Subject: [WISPA] The OECD just released its broadband stats for December.


All,

http://www.oecd.org/document/7/0,2340,en_2649_34223_38446855_1_1_1_1,00.html

* The breakdown of broadband technologies in December 2006 is as follows:
     - DSL : 62%
     - Cable modem : 29%
     - FTTH/FTTB : 7%
- Other (e.g. satellite, fixed wireless, powerline communication) : 2%

Wireless Providers have made some improvements in market share but not enough to say they are a force to be reckoned with.

Canada has a lower population density than the US yet they still kicked butt in broadband penetration.

Broadband penetration Population density
(subscribers per 100 inhabitants, Dec. 2006)    (inhab/km2, 2005)
   Canada             23.8                                            3.0
United States 19.6 32.0
