The hotspot market continues to surge forward with phenomenal growth in footprint and usage, a trend that In-Stat anticipates will continue. As with the past several years, growth in the hotspot market is largely being driven by wireless and broadband providers embracing Wi-Fi as both a competitive differentiator and enhancement to core services. How hotspots are being used, the frequency, and the occasion for usage all continue to transition due to a variety of factors, including:

- Further integration of Wi-Fi into mobile operator strategies
- A promise of automatic login and seamless access as next-generation hotspot technologies are implemented in coming years
- Revised payment models shifting to free and bundled access
- New application potential, including mobile video and location-based services.
