GAMBOD is a search and analysis tool developed by GSA for HSPA devices, allowing searches by supplier, form factor, features, peak downlink and uplink speeds, and operating frequency. Results are presented as a list, or as a spreadsheet, or in charts. An RSS feed can be used to alert when new devices are added to the database. Charts may be inserted into documents or presentations, subject to accreditation of GSA as the source.

GAMBOD is available for use only by GSA website registered users with access to the Operators Zone, or GSA Member companies with access to the Members Zone.

This document summarizes the Key Findings of GSA's latest HSPA Devices Survey which confirms 963 HSDPA-enabled devices launched in the market by 139 suppliers, comprising handsets, PC datacards and modules, HSPA-enabled notebooks, USB modems, wireless routers, Personal Media Players, and a digital camera.

Support for all 3G spectrum bands is strongly evident in the survey, not only for the widely-deployed 2100 MHz frequency band, but also for 850 MHz operation to support markets in Australia, the Americas, and Asia and 1900 MHz which is also in use in the Americas.

Significantly improving availability of UMTS 900 devices is also highlighted.

Higher speed HSDPA devices e.g. 3.6 and 7.2 Mbps peak downlink and higher are identified.

The survey also identifies 125 HSUPA-capable products.

Details of each of the identified 963 products are contained in the HSPA Devices Survey (October 31, 2008) at www.gsacom.com/gsm_3g/surveys.php4

This latest 3G networks survey by GSA shows which mobile operators have commercially launched WCDMA services, and confirms those operators which have also launched HSPA - High Speed Packet Access, for mobile broadband. More detailed information about HSDPA and HSUPA deployments and launches is provided in the related survey "HSPA Operator Commitments", which is available on www.gsacom.com

This latest survey (October 2, 2008) confirms 239 commercial WCDMA operators are launched in 101 countries

The survey also confirms that over 92% of commercial WCDMA operators have also commercially launched HSDPA

This survey was undertaken by GSA
