Product Type: Market Research Report
Published by: In-Stat

Product Code: R97-2505Description The year 2006 marks the first year in which we will see an uptick in consumer awareness of portable video. Market drivers include increased broadband access, more authorized video download sites, PMPs that can connect directly to PVRs in order to download video content, and an anticipated “true” Apple-branded PMP within the next year. In addition, consumer electronic heavy hitters, like Toshiba and Philips, have entered the PMP market. As a result, we expect that this awareness will lead to stronger PMP demand and increased shipment growth in 2007 and 2008.
This report covers market drivers for PMP devices. It also takes an in-depth look at existing video content sites, PMP manufacturers and component suppliers. This report includes the results of a US consumer survey about the use of, and knowledge of, PMP devices; and finally, it provides five-year forecasts for worldwide PMP shipments and revenues, as well as average sales prices.Table of Contents
