Reportlinker Adds PNDs: Worldwide Shipments Grow Despite Increased Competition from GPS-Enabled Handsets

NEW YORK, Nov 20, 2009 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue.

PNDs: Worldwide Shipments Grow Despite Increased Competition from GPS-Enabled Handsets http://www.reportlinker.com/p0165044/PNDs-Worldwide-Shipments-Grow-Despite-Increased-Competition-from-GPS-Enabled-Handsets.html#utm_source=prnewswire&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=prnewswire The personal navigation device (PND) market is maturing as prices decline, consolidation occurs, and shipment growth slows; the most looming threat is the rapidly growing GPS-enabled mobile phone market.

Still, PND shipments will continue due to affordable price points for the mass market, car manufacturers' desire to offer cheap navigation options, and the potential growth in connected PNDs. Yet, due to the weak economy's impact on consumer spending, demand for these higher-priced connected PNDs has yet to take off. In-Stat expects that if the costs to incorporate a cellular modem decrease, there will be a stronger opportunity for connected PNDs.

Meanwhile, PND manufacturers should explore ways to participate in the GPS-enabled mobile handset market. GPS-enabled mobile handsets are expected to grow 26% between 2009 and 2010, and reach almost 700 million units by 2013.

In-Stat's recent PND research offers forecasts for global and regional PND shipments, worldwide revenue, and average selling prices. A bill of materials analysis, as well as silicon and non- silicon revenue opportunities are discussed. Finally, a worldwide forecast of GPS-enabled handsets is offered.

Innovative Features Mean Major Savings for Cellular Operators Using Satellite Backhaul
With the rising cost of satellite bandwidth and the need for more of it to support an ever increasing number of voice, data and now video services, operators must seek ways to reduce both their hardware investment costs and operating expenses, especially when fierce competition forces them to provide these new services without raising their rates.
