If you are still referring to your DVD player as your VCR and your Internet connection as the Information superhighway its possible you are being left behind by increasing numbers of tech savvy wireless families. Results of a new survey by the National Institutes of Health indicates US families are saying good riddance to traditional home phones and embracing a wireless tomorrow.
The survey investigated how families used their communications equipment including 24,514 adults aged 18 or older, and 9,122 children under the age of 18, from 13,083 households, and the results were startingly. Of those surveyed 1/6 households were wireless only and had no traditional home phone, meaning 14.5% of adults and 14.4% or 42 million Americans use mobile phones as their primary communication device.
This is a sharp increase from the previous survey period a year previous where the figure was 1/8 adults and up staggeringly from 2 years previous to that when the 2004 survey recording a figure of 1/18 of adults. When the figures are reviewed along demographics the figure look even better for ATT’s coffers, with nearly 1/3 of 18-29 year olds being completely wireless, a promising forebear for the future of mobile operators.
Even households that operated with more than simply wireless communications over 1/5 admitted they use wireless for “all or almost all” calls. The increasing trend towards wireless only households speaks of the thirst for greater social networks and mobility and as network speeds increase and 3G technology becomes more widespread, the future looks bright for mobile technology and for wireless households.
