According to J’son & Partners, there will be 1250 – 1500 commercial hotspots and 25-30 thousands Wi-Fi users by the end of 2008 According to BroadGroup agency, which has analyzed the fees of 122 operators in 28 countries, the average European fee is € 5,74 per hour (without taxes). Since the beginning of 2004 it has been decreased in 11%.
IEEE 802.11 standard The scope of the standard 802.11 is to develop a medium access control and physical layer specifications for providing quick wireless connectivity between portable and moving stations within a local area.

Quality of Service in Wi-Fi networks • voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) • video streaming • music streaming • interactive gaming QoS allows network owners to leverage the Wi-Fi infrastructure to offer a richer set of services.
Demand for Wi-Fi multimedia applications is growing rapidly due to: • Wi-Fi home networking is spreading rapidly among households • Residential broadband penetration has taken off • New services, digital content, and new applications are becoming more widely available • A wide range of products addressing digital entertainment connectivity are rapidly entering the market
Enterprise market • cost savings • prioritized traffic management Public market Users are increasingly accustomed to VoIP and multimedia applications. • Residential market • a wider array of Wi-Fi-enabled devices • providing wireless voice connectivity • using the Wi-Fi network to distribute content from a media server • establishing wireless connectivity between devices • supporting peer-to-peer networks for telephony or gaming
