SUMMARY
Although Bluetooth-enabled devices haven't quite entered the true mainstream yet, they are poised to take that next step. HandsFree regulations and auto manufacturers are helping to drive the movement toward the safety and convenience of cordless headsets. But, what will really make an impact, and provide a real benefit and reason for consumers to want them is that they will be able to use them with a multitude of products, from mobile phones to telematics systems, digital audio players and game devices, PCs, office phones, and emerging stereo systems and wireless speakers. To see evidence of the headset market heating up, one only has to look at the shear number of companies springing up all over the world that are either developing or manufacturing a Bluetooth headset. Total shipped Bluetooth ICs approximately doubled in 2003 to 69 million units, and are forecasted to grow to 720 million in 2008. By 2008, silicon revenue will hit $1.7B. This report provides forecasts for manufactured Bluetooth-enabled equipment and semiconductor shipments by detailed application. The forecast for radio, baseband, and host-supported silicon solutions is presented, as well as semiconductor shipments by HCI breakout, geographic region shipments and design wins, shipments by Class 1 vs. Class 2/3, and application segmentations for Class 1. Years 2001 - 2008 are provided. This year, our Personal Mobile Gateway forecast has been added. TABLE OF CONTENTS
