There will be a lot of new players in a 3G terminal business. The Ericsson-Sony phone and brand merger will shake the market as will the new arrival of 3G PDA manufacturers. Japanese companies Panasonic/Matsushita and NEC seem to be starting stronger this time and top GSM phone manufacturers Nokia, Motorola and Siemens will have tougher competition in the market. Samsung and LG will also make a big impact in the market. The race is also on to fill the terminals with third party software applications.
Here are the latest market research reports:

Alliances:
The 3G network vendors that do not have terminal business are busy forming alliances. Nortel has co-operation with Panasonic, Alcatel is working with Sagem and Lucent has partnered with Qualcomm, Nokia and Lucky Goldstar co-operate on 2G phone technology.
The Japanise WCDMA operator, NTT DoCoMo, was initially in 2001 selling NEC and Panasonic developed WCDMA phones. The least expensive of NTT's three phones, the FOMA P2401, cost US$250. The most expensive, FOMA P2101V, was priced at US$510. (2001 prices)
We will monitor the market and post the terminal market shares here when the sales really take off.
