Mobile Internet Lifts SFR

SFR, the second largest mobile operator in France, still expects mobile revenue to grow slightly this year, driven mainly by mobile Internet usage, the group's Chief Executive Frank Esser told Dow Jones Newswires. "In three years from now around 50% of our customer base will use smartphones such as i-phone, blackberry, google phone, and others, compared to around 10% today," he added.

However, Esser said that interventions by regulators will cut more than 200 million euros from SFR's EBITDA in 2009. source: Total Telecom/Dow Jones
