For print sales in the wireless space, look for providers of novel applications in sideband radio frequency leases, such as for sensor networks along highways. Hundreds of startups are realizing that independent commercial broadcasters hold an extremely leveragable wireless franchise.
All other "lines" (long distance, local wire, fibre optic and cable) are at saturation, including directories ($15B, 0 percent). AT&T, SBC and other conventional providers are in negative or zero growth. Local governments are in the way of cable/telephone crossovers as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ruled that only voice-over-Internet-protocols (VoIPs) are not subject to state regulation. Telecom equipment ($103B, -10 percent) is declining in fierce price competition. In high growth will be personal digital assistants (PDAs) and VoIP connection hardware.
