Vodafone on track with 3G rollouts
August 10, 2002
Vodafone would like to emphasise that its 3G plans are on track
and are not delayed. Vodafone intends to open the majority of its
3G networks for service towards the end of this year and we will
begin to conduct closed user group trials to test its 3G services.
Following this trial phase Vodafone will then begin to market 3G
based services in 2003, when Vodafone expects appropriate levels
of dual mode (GPRS/3G) handsets.
This position was set out in Vodafone's Preliminary Results press
release of 28 May 2002: "Initially, 3G networks will be opened to
conduct a series of "friendly-user" trials, leading up to full-scale
roll-out following completion of user product acceptance testing."
As Vodafone has also stated, it believes 3G based services will
become a mass market proposition during 2004.
As Sir Christopher Gent, Chief Executive, stated at the Group's
Preliminary Results on 28 May 2002:
"Although we open 3G this year, we will not be promoting it, both
because we do not expect plentiful supplies of dual-mode handsets
until the next financial year, and it is applications that matter
for our customers, not technology. The new data applications that
we are bringing to market during this year do not require 3G but
will work very satisfactorily in the 2.5G GPRS environment. They
will further lift data percentage of revenues progressively throughout
the year."
Vodafone continues to build out its 3G infrastructure according
to capacity, potential demand for services and regulatory requirements.
