39% of internet users used a handheld device to go online - 9.16.2008 [more ] 39% of internet users say they have used a handheld device to go online - the figure is 41% for home broadband users and 36% for home dial-up users. Given the dwindling number or home dial-up users, this means that some 86% of those who use a handheld to access the internet are broadband users. Although some cell phone networks today are capable of transmission rates of 200 kilobits per second (the FCC-defined threshold for a “first generation” broadband), it is difficult, if not impossible, to determine how many, according to the Pew Internet Project.
