With saturation of mobile handsets and flattening ARPU, mobile operators are facing the challenges of driving down costs while improving performance, continuing to drive revenue growth and becoming a total telecommunications provider. Achieving these goals requires a solid technology strategy coupled with a sound products and services portfolio into the future.
