According to Harbor Research:
• The number of intelligent device shipments will grow from 73 million units in
2008 and to 430 million units in 2013. Total device revenue is expected to
exceed $12 billion by 2013. Much of the growth will be due to Wireless
PAN technology, including ZigBee and other 802.15.4 related technology,
particularly those used in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs).

marketplace… Over the next five years, we're going to see that the
true value held in connected devices will shift towards value-

generation.“
