Revenue grew a healthy 22 percent in the first quarter, but wireline voice service revenue fell 7.1 percent to $9.7 billion, while wireless revenue increased 17.1 percent to $10.6 billion. Data revenue grew six percent to $6.2 billion. Slower data growth will be a problem if wireless does not continue its upward climb.
