Latest Jupiter Reserach Report on Mobile Video

Jupiter Research released their latest report on the US Mobile Video market. Highlights of the press release:

- $501 million in revenues by 2010, up from $62 million in 2005
- 2% of mobile phone users subscribe to a mobile video service today
- 17% of subscribers polled are interested in watching TV on their phones

Nothing too new here - I think the 2% number is a bit aggressive - that would mean 4M subscribers? Considering that up until recently, Sprint & Verizon were the only two carriers that offered video services, and both of these services are pretty new, I would guess that the total number of phones capable of streaming video is in the 4M range, with subscriptions being a % of these.

In any event 17% of a big number (200M+ subs) is a big number.
