Stephane Teral, principal analyst for mobile and FMC infrastructure at Infonetics Research claims that the "near-6% increase in global telecom carrier CAPEX we expect in 2011 over 2010 is due in large part to AT&T's ramping LTE deployments, HSPA+ upgrades, and investments in WiFi hotspots for traffic offload."
