RBOC Pay Telephone: Evolution to Kiosks for PCs and Handsets - Market Opportunities, Market Forecasts, and Market Strategies, 2002-2007

Pay telephones are expected to have lower total revenue as the increasing use of wireless telephones decreases need for pay telephones. The RBOCs are positioning to achieve a market presence in broadband pay telephone services. Pay telephone vendors are responding to changes in the worldwide communications industry that are leading to new opportunity. In the competitive voice services environment consumers and businesses are being responsive to the increased productivity brought by the ability to communicate from any location wirelessly and are losing interest in pay telephones.

New wireless data systems that support IP connectivity leverage changing PC connectivity architecture. The changing character of wireless telecommunications can have implications for pay telephone markets, permitting the addition of video and data communication to existing pay telephone lines.
