Sustainability is big concern for mobile telcos says head of Orange Mobile

I recently met with Olaf Swantee, the head of Orange Mobile, a large telco owned by France Telecom. Mr Swantee said sustainability and the availability of spectrum were two key challenges. Other highlights from the interview: -WiMAX is not seen as a solution to spectrum issue. -iPhone customers use about 90 MBytes of data per month compared with just 30 KB for regular customers, this is putting pressure on building larger data infrastructure.
