Going forward, we expect the high network investment to continue as the company looks to expand its LTE network to new regions and uses it as the primary network for data traffic in the future.
FORBES: As China Mobile's Earnings Flatten More 3G Growth Needed
Intel should see increased technology spending in an economic recovery, particularly with increased demand from cloud computing and virtualization, as well as from surging data and network traffic.
This is software that sits at the edge of a firm's network and inspects the outgoing data traffic.
It now says it has enough to handle data traffic on its network through 2017.

In the current generation of the data center, you start monitoring network traffic.
Their sensors record network traffic and use a feed of data about threat sources associated with command and control servers.
Microsoft put a lot of effort into optimizing the FM data network it used, which even fed traffic information to some GPS devices.

Users have complained loudly about dropped calls in particular, a result of the network stress brought on by iPhone users' heavy data traffic.
The carrier also is spending billions of dollars to build out a next-generation broadband network, using a technology called LTE, that can handle more wireless data traffic.
All the unlimited offers we have on our network have been designed when the main traffic was the voice and the data was a small part of the capacity.
FORBES: Dissecting The Google, Verizon Net Neutrality Argument
Innovation across the U.S. mobile ecosystem is vigorous, U.S. network speeds are fast, and U.S. consumers generate more voice and data traffic than anyone.
Indeed, text and tweet traffic was so heavy that early on it temporarily overloaded at least one data network.
FORBES: Connecting marketers to the Forbes audience. What is this?
Instead, high-speed wireless access services can leapfrog the fiber lines directly to your computer and provide even higher rates of data transmission-- over the same CDMA network that's already in place to route cell phone traffic.
But video poses real challenges, as it consumes considerably more bandwidth than both voice and data, and video quality degrades substantially, often unacceptably, when network congestion interrupts or delays individual packets in traffic streams.
As mobile data traffic continues to grow at a rapid pace, many mobile operators are transitioning from a 3G network to an all-internet protocol network, such as LTE, to manage the high volume of traffic and provide a high quality customer experience.
