Citing leading provider AT&T, Parks analysts also noted that mobile operators will likely continue to explore new and novel strategies to attract mobile data subscribers. "AT&T is looking to leverage its acquisition of DIRECTV to build its mobile data business by re-introducing its offer of unlimited data as a reward to customers who sign up for the satellite TV service," Wang added.
Parks also expects data sharing to play a big role in mobile app usage, Roughly half of US smartphone owners with a limited data plan currently share data between multiple devices, and 87% of them share data among multiple smartphones.
