Californian Market Intelligence agency iSuppli predicts that by 2008, USB ports will be fitted to 73 percent of all new-model
mobile phones, up from 30 percent in 2004, while music playback
capability — including MP3 — will feature in 54 percent of new-model
wireless handsets in 2008, up from 20 percent in 2004.

Slots for removable flash-memory cards, which can be used to store
and transfer music files are predicted to reach a 43 percent
penetration rate of new phones by 2008, up from 16 percent in 2004.

Finally, 14 percent of new-model phones in 2008 are estimated to be Wi-Fi capable, up from less than 1 percent in 2004.
