4Q2003 National Wireless Carrier Statistics

The 4Q2003 statistics on market share, subscriber totals, subscriber
additions, quarterly churn, and percentage changes from 3Q2003 are now
available on my web site at http://nordicgroup.us/ssub/4q2003.htm

These statistics come from the press releases of the wireless carriers. The
only item missing is the ARPU for T-Mobile USA, as this data has not yet
been released.

Thank you for this servive which confirms Sprint PCS' high churn rate
remains unchanged despite Lauer's constant promise to have it decrease.

Oh please. The churn rate has decreased when compared to the same
