Looking at the costs as a whole, the total CAPEX for the
Western European country is a little above 34 million Euros
over the ten-year period. This translates to about 22 Euros per
user. (The total customer base rises to approximately 1.55
million during the study period.) Comparing this with
estimates of 3G SAE investments in other markets, the
assumed capital expenditure per person in most large
European countries is between 20 and 30 Euros. The overall
result thus seems well in line with its European counterparts.
The cost per person can be further lowered by choosing not to
cover all potential market areas.
