Every day, more than 28,000 new customers sign up for service. The effects of this powerful, ongoing demand will reverberate throughout the economy in many ways, from new manufacturing facilities to job creation. The wireless industry has already created 250,000 new jobs in the United States. By the close of the decade, the industry is expected to produce a million more. The reason for this staggering growth is simple.
Wireless telephones have great utility.
They work , both for businesses and individuals. They increase productivity and make life easier, safer and more convenient. No longer just an executive toy, they are now being used by the busy mother on her way to pick up a child, the motorist who is lost and in need of directions, and the senior citizen who wants to be ready in case the car breaks down. In short, by all of us. Then there are the public safety applications.
