10. GDP Per Capita ⇡≈ Broadband / PC Adoption ⇡
Increasing GDP per capita leads to higher broadband penetration rates, which we view as a key indicator of
PC adoption (both drivers of Internet growth). We note significant correlation between GDP per capita
and Broadband Penetration rates in our sample, with an R2 of nearly 64%. While the R2 increases to 76%
when South Korea is excluded.

11. Broadband – An Indicator of PC-based Internet Growth
We view broadband penetration as a more useful indicator of PC Shipments (and therefore broadband
/ PC-based Internet growth) in emerging markets, given penetration is still low and it’s all about
Internet access. Our sample of countries indicates a correlation between broadband penetration and PC
shipments per capita, with an R2 of nearly 60%, and rising to 72% when South Korea is excluded.

29. Consumerization of Digital Media Content
♦ We believe the next major milestone in the evolution of the mobile communications industry will
be based on the extension of mobility to consumers’ digital media.
♦ This has been occurring, which has allowed more mobile device manufacturers the opportunity to
drive higher levels of differentiation in their devices.
♦ Differentiation has largely been in terms of form factor, aesthetics, applications, and man-machine
interfaces, which both impact the device’s ease of use and perceived utility.
♦ RIM & Apple have raised the bar in the industry and driven differentiation, but competition is
increasing
♦ Operators are also getting into the content game and may compete against handset vendors

30. Global Handset Market – Phases of Differentiation
♦ Given the maturity of the mobile
device market, the current debate
is whether the market has
commoditized.
♦ Devices predominantly addressing
industry secular growth (now
primarily emerging markets) have
become increasingly
commoditized, with price now the
key differentiator.
♦ We believe the replacement
segment of the market
experiences periods of different
levels of differentiation, and, in
turn, varying degrees of 1990 1995 2000 2007 2010
commoditization.
♦ Differentiation comes in three
areas:
1) Industrial design
2) Technology
3) User experience (ease of use)
♦ New applications such as music,
imaging, and navigation have
helped to increase some
differentiation in the market.

two segments are still expected to see growth:

35. eCommerce still an under-penetrated retail channel
♦ We expect eCommerce penetration of total retail to continue,
reaching 4-5% by 2011-2013. We conservatively expect this number
to reach at least 15%+ over time
♦ As a comparison, catalog retail is currently roughly 4% of US retail,
though the online channel has lower barriers to entry and offers a
virtually unlimited selection and on-demand access

42. Mobile Handset Industry Summary
♦ Digital media content is becoming more pervasive in society
— Significant growth expected in new forms of digital media content
— Music, digital TV (Personal Video Recorders and Video on Demand),
radio, pictures, games
♦ Mobile communications will evolve to support access to consumer digital
content
— After 20 years of supporting voice, mobile networks now evolving to
support broadband applications, WCDMA the first step in the process
with HSDPA seen as the key enabler . . .
— Vendor consolidation occurring through “natural selection”, not M&A
— Continued growth in emerging markets as teledensity improves
♦ Mobile device market in a transition phase, waiting for new applications
to take hold
— New entrants raising the bar in the industry (RIM, Apple, etc.)
— Higher differentiation is returning to the replacement market with
the balance of power shifting to handset vendors. However, this cycle
will likely fade in the coming year or two
41
43. Key Mobile Handset Industry Trends
♦ Focus on Data to Drive ARPU. With decreasing price per minute,
roaming fees, etc, operators focus on data to help offset declines in voice
ARPU.
♦ Higher Subsidies for Handsets that Drive ARPU. Apple changed the
game for smartphone pricing. RIM is already competitively priced. Other
vendors must prove they can drive ARPU to get similar subsidies to be
competitive or risk either market share losses or margin contraction.
♦ At the Expense of Older Handsets. We believe operators are less
aggressively pushing older handsets to focus on newer, differentiated
products.
