Financial impact on Ericsson
Forecasts:
60% - expected mobile broadband's share (66% in 2012, according to Ericsson data)Ericsson's revenue - equivalent of 30% of operator's EBITDA

Mitigating risks in implementation
Risk Likelihood Mitigation strategy
Vodafone is resistant to change ++Reach innovative operators: e.g. Orange, T-Mobile, O2
ERICSSON unable to achieve scale by selling to other operators
++Adapt model to handset manufacturers, reach smaller operators
Google or new iPhone apps come to market before 2009
+++Project Crystal Palace is defensive measure
Consumers do not evolve to “ideal experience”
++“Open Garden” and advertising model will ensure web-like experience and prices
Risk of inaction would be higher than risk of implementing Crystal Palace

Vodafone can build on its capabilities:• Knowledge of customer location in real time• Knowledge of services and applications used
And develop more:• Support investment together with Verizon Wireless• Partnerships with marketing agencies
