ABI Guesses Again!

ABI, a powerhouse in the wireless market analysis field, is REALLY sticking their necks out (again).

In a study entitled Bluetooth: The Global Outlook, ABI Research (Oyster Bay, N.Y.) expects the market will grow at a compound annual rate of over 40 percent between 2004 and 2011, with equipment shipments expected to break the 1 billion mark by 2009.

I find this fascinating, since, based on the study I read, ABI predicted shipments of 1 billion this year....

And they get PAID for doing this???
