Summary
 The market for networked digital media adapters (DMAs)/digital media players (DMPs)/digital media receivers (DMRs) has been emerging slowly for a number of years. Since the market is still relatively small, it enjoyed growth of nearly 50% in 2008, but growth has slowed in 2009, due mostly to the economy.

Summary
 Based upon the results of our North American broadband survey, the majority of consumers with a home network that use Wi-Fi are still not very/not at all familiar with the benefits and differences between 802.11g and 802.11n. Although this may limit upgrades in the short term, the older Wi-Fi standards will be discontinued eventually anyway. Other wired technologies that use coax, phone wiring, and powerline are also beginning to make strides with telcos deploying telco TV services.
 
 The number of home LAN physical layer interface shipments will surpass 500 million in 2010, and the installed base of home networks will surpass 300 million in 2011.
 
 Global and regional forecasts are provided for home networks, with North America, Europe, and Asia/Pacific broken down by use of Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, and other wired solutions. In addition, global home network interfaces by physical layer are included, since the majority of network-enabled devices have both wired and wireless connectivity options.

Summary
 In 2008, 154 million broadband customer premises equipment (CPE) units (broadband modems, routers, and residential gateways) shipped worldwide, resulting in an increase of 2.4% over 2007, the slowest growth in this decade. Through 2013, modems and ONTs will continue to dominate global unit shipments. This report contains analysis of worldwide equipment shipments, home networks, and consumer survey data. We examine key worldwide and regional CPE markets for broadband modems/ONTs, routers, and residential gateways for DSL, cable, Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH), Fixed Wireless Broadband, and Fixed Satellite Broadband. VoIP forecasts are included for DSL, cable, and router equipment, with a regional breakout for cable E-MTAs. Wired vs. wireless segmentations are included for routers and DSL residential gateways. In addition, global and regional forecasts are provided for home networks, as well as recent consumer survey perspectives about equipment features that impact buying decisions.

Summary
 The combined broadband CPE market of cable and DSL modems, routers, and residential gateways eked out a global 0.4% unit growth in 2008, rising to 141.8 million unit shipments. Routers fared the best, followed by DSL modems, and then gateways. Cable modems suffered with a single-digit decline.
 
 Linksys led in routers and home Wi-Fi aggregators, while Thomson held on to the lead in residential gateways. Motorola increased its lead in the cable modem market. Huawei held on to the number one position in DSL modems, while increasing its share. The most movement in rankings occurred in the home Wi-Fi aggregator segment.
 
 Unit growth has generally been slowing, due to slowing global cable and DSL subscriber growth and replacements of two units with one unit (modem and router to a gateway). But the economic downturn took a toll on momentum in 2008. Looking at it with a "glass half full" slant, it was fortunate that there was not a decline in total shipments in 2008.
 
 This report examines the broadband CPE annual market shares for 2008 vs. 2007, based on unit shipments. A separate slice for home Wi-Fi aggregators is also presented, which overlaps total broadband routers and gateways.

Summary
 Although the consumer network storage space was already crowded, there are still new entrants. Because of the crowding, some jockeying in market share has been taking place.
 
 Not surprisingly, global growth rates slid in 2008, and 2009 promises to be sluggish. However, one region will provide a brighter spot in the consumer network drive arena in the midst of the economic downturn. In the face of these times, competition will be stiff from cheaper, external direct USB storage. Marketing/advertising of the benefits of network storage over direct storage will continue to be a challenge. Consumer network storage includes NAS, SAN, NDAS, and Windows Home Server platforms.
 
 This worldwide report includes 2007-2013 forecasts for each market segmentation by region, price tier, and storage capacity, wired vs. wireless LAN, and provides discussions about consumer network storage market trends, technology trends, processors, and 2008 global vendor market shares. In addition, an industry-leading detailed vendor matrix of product lines, models, and features is also provided, with some features not easily obtainable. A table is included showing branded media server vs. proprietary UPnP server use by vendor. Applicable domestic and international consumer survey research is also included.

Summary
 
 
 The term media phone has not yet appeared on most people's radar screens. But that is soon to change. In early 2009, incumbent service providers around the world will rollout media phones in consumer markets. The media phone entry into business markets will not be far behind.
 
 The media phone is a new category of broadband device that combines the power of the PC with the performance of a telephone. The result is an always-on multimedia broadband device that is perfect for accessing online news and weather, viewing videos, and a host of other applications. In-Stat believes that the media phone will complement the PC, TV, and mobile handset, becoming an indispensable 4th screen in the home.
 
 Service providers and IP PBX vendors, alike, are introducing media phones because they add value to traditional voice telephones and related services. This report examines the market for media phones in both the consumer and business markets. It dives into product requirements, as well as critical commercial policy issues. A five-year unit and revenue forecast is presented by geographic region.
