Hello Anti-ga
The NPD Group provides up to date information on Telecom sales by
category.
CORDLESS PHONES & TELEPHONE ANSWERING DEVICES Cordless phones and
TADs generated 65% of the Telecom revenue in 2002. Cordless was down
13% and TADs were down 1%. Both had sales that were driven by the
new 5.8 GHz phones that provided a new product opportunity and a
reason to promote and close out the older 2.4 GHz and 900 MHz phones
and TADs. Sales of the 5.8GHz cordless phones that started selling in
September represented 4.0% of dollars. 3.0% of the 4th quarter dollars
came from cordless TADs with sales starting in October 2002. Cordless
phones with extra handsets represented 3.1% of units in 2002, up from
0.9% in 2001. 1.9% of the TADs sold had extra handsets but 12% had the
capability to add handsets to create a whole house system. Sales of
multi-line TADs have also increased with three line TADs capturing
5.1% of 2002 dollars.
