  1. The GSM Family of ServicesThe Evolution to 3G Joe Barrett Director, Market Development Nokia Networks

  2. Facts not Hype • Globally GSM today is providing the most growth and providing the best data rates • GSM operators are ranked higher than any other operators when it comes to the percentage of data generated from ARPU • GSM/EDGE will offer the highest data rates at the lowest cost and the best Quality of Service classes of any technology during 2003 • WCDMA will be needed for future capacity, delivery cost, speed and quality of service in mobile networks • There is no doubt about this

  3. GSM is still providing the majority of growth Source EMC Database

  4. GSM is growing by a different order of magnitude Source EMC Database

  5. GSM Data Rates are Global • GSM data rates with GPRS are in all operator cases across the globe are between 30-40kb/s • CDMA 1X user data rates vary from up to 90kb/s in a fragmentated Korean market where they have a mixture of proprietary solutions to 43kb/s in the US, which has been measured by Nokia • GSM/EDGE user data rates will be 80-100kb/s with the first handsets and then 160 to 200kb/s by end of 2003 • WCDMA networks are already in working trials and the terminals have passed regulatory type approval (dual mode) in Europe and Japan • Immediacy of service will have the biggest impact on the network load and impact costs

  6. GSM is driving data ARPU • The top data operators are using GSM technology • The top Japanese operators have chosen the GSM evolution path i.e. WCDMA • KDDI is the only ranked CDMA operator in the top 40 at 12th • The Korean operators are ranked 42nd, 47th & 49th and will deploy WCDMA • Roaming accounts for 7% of Western European Operator’s revenue • In Korea roaming accounts for only 0.5% of revenue Source EMC Database

  7. Nokia EDGE Availability • EDGE is an inherent part of Nokia's GSM evolution strategy • Nokia EDGE infrastructure mass deployment has started • Roll-outs are supported for all continents and markets • Full commercial system support in networks in 05/03 for ANSI and 07/03 for ETSI markets • Nokia terminals availability • First EDGE terminals for US market in 1Q03 (800/1800/1900) • Followed by terminals for other markets from 2Q03 onwards (900/1800/1900) • EDGE will be introduced progressively to several product categories in 2H03 and through the terminal range in 2004

  8. WCDMA launches Source EMC Database

  9. Summary • We believe that the GSM Family of Services offers the overall best evolution to 3G and the most viably economic business case of any technology that can be deployed today • Our analysis is based on facts not hype
