North American Operator Non-Voice Revenues to Approach $100 billion by 2015

Service provider revenues from non-voice services will almost double to $96.7 billion by 2015, up from $56.0 billion in 2010, driven by consumer adoption of data-hungry devices, such as, smartphones and tablets, Juniper Research estimates.

Despite the growth, total operator revenues will slow year-over-year, as a result of the decline in voice revenues. Meanwhile, according to report author Daniel Ashdown, "voice revenues are deteriorating as the subscriber market saturates and competition places pressure on voice bundle pricing."
