Wireless Data Usage Surges over 100-fold After iPhone’s Launch

Monthly usage of wireless data among smartphone users in South Korea surged over 100-fold during the first two months following the iPhone’s launch here, a report from KT showed Monday.

Certainly not a surprise, but KT had to have been taken aback. Nobody predicted the sales of iPhone that has been seen here in Korea. This corresponded to increased data plans for iPhones as well as other smartphones.

I hope that they are able to alter their business model from features to data to a certain extent. It think that this will benefit users, though not the telecoms.

  1. That’s a good question. I don’t think we’ll get those numbers any time soon 🙂
