The CDMA Development Group (CDG) has announced that the global CDMA2000 market reached 350 million 3G subscribers by the end of Q1 2007. Including cdmaOne 2G subscribers, there are now more than 387 million CDMA subscribers worldwide. The CDG also announced that the EV-DO subscriber base more than doubled in the past year to more than 65 million wireless broadband subscribers. The migration from 2G to 3G is occurring rapidly, with 217 CDMA2000 operators in 95 countries offering 3G services in most every major urban center and emerging market. The shipment of more than 30 million CDMA2000 devices per quarter is creating enormous economies of scale. In the first three months of 2007, CDMA2000 operators added more than 25 million subscribers to their networks, building the subscriber base to close to 351 million users worldwide. CDMA2000 continues to grow at 100 million new users per year, adding nearly twice as many subscribers as WCDMA.
