Mobile Internet Users will Overtake Fixed Users in 2013

According to a recent report just published by IDATE titled “World Internet Usages & Markets”, globally the number of mobile internet users should reach 2.1 billion in 2013 overtaking the number of users of fixed Internet (1.9 billion).
According to Sophie Lubrano, Project Leader and IDATE’s Director of Studies. “This growth is fuelled by emerging markets, particularly China.”

This trend is in line with other forecasts such as Morgan Stanley analyst who has also predicted that by 2013 more people will be accessing the Internet through mobile devices than desktop.
