Hi needresearch-ga,

I've been able to find the following links (and quotes) regarding
broadband usage in the countries you are interested in.

Brazil:
According to Pulseonline May 2002:
http://pulse.tiaonline.org/article.cfm?ID=818&keyword=small%20company
"Brazil has no official broadband strategy but a clear trend is
emerging: a strong migration of dial-up modem home users to digital
subscriber line (DSL), and to a lesser extent cable. Of a total of 12
million Internet users, 300,000 have already migrated to high-speed
access services."

later in that same article:
"A Yankee Group report forecasts dramatic broadband subscriber gains
(both for xDSL and cable modems) in Brazil, Argentina, Chile and
Mexico. In Brazil, xDSL subscribers are expected to top one million in
2003 with the number of modems increasing from 60,000 in last year to
827,000 this year."

Argentina:
According to Newsfactor.com November 9, 2000 
http://www.newsfactor.com/perl/story/5231.html
"In Argentina, the number of cable modems will shoot up from 30,000
this year to 143,000 in 2003, with ADSL subscriptions increasing all
the way from 8,000 this year to 74,000 in 2003."

According to Point Topic april 2002

Chile:
According to Point Topic:
http://www.point-topic.com/scripts/directory/profile.asp?country=5
"Chile's telecoms market is highly competitive. The country's total
number of dedicated access subscribers (i.e broadband including xDSL
and cable modem) in June 2001 was 31,882, and by September 2001 had
risen to 49,478 - more than a 50% increase in the quarter, according
to the regulator SUBTEL."

Phone Plus International reports 05/01:
http://www.phoneplusinternational.com/articles/151feat3.html
"Market research firm Frost & Sullivan believes that there were 30,000
broadband subscribers in Chile last year, counting about 20,000 ISDN
users."

New Media Monitor:
http://etcmonitor.initiative.net/scripts/marketspg2.asp?country=chi&countryname=Chile
"According to the Yankee Group, the number of broadband connections in
Chile is set to nearly triple during 2001 from 23,000 to 61,000. This
figure should reach 114,000 by 2002. The growth will be mainly driven
by Chilean businesses. (eMarketer’s Broadband Weekly, eMarketer, May
2001)"

"Although currently, broadband accounts for only 2.4% of the total
Indian Internet access market (Frost & Sullivan), there is a new
consumer segment that is emerging, who would not want to compromise
with the vagaries of conventional connectivity"

Businessworldindia.com 30th Oct  2000 claims 
http://www.businessworldindia.com/archive/201030/mktg1.htm
"The big picture is clear. One, the Net phenomenon continues to grow
in India. At last count, there were 1.5 million subscribers here, up
from 2.5 lakh in 1998."

Internet households connected via ISDN, followed by Denmark with 19.5
per cent of households."
