According to Parks Associates, the number of broadband households with
a residential gateway will reach 47 million by 2010. Service providers
will play a big role in deploying these devices, leveraging the new RG-enabled
services to acquire and retain customers and generate more revenue. Also
in 2010, the number of U.S. households with a networked storage device
will grow to nearly 10 million. These and other advanced devices will
serve as the foundation for the digital home.
