The Facts:

 "Comcast and the other incumbents keep pointing to mobile wireless and claiming that its use in America changes this picture. That’s just not true.

Although there has been growth in mobile wireless over the last few years, it is a complementary service: 83% of Americans with smartphones also have a wire at home. So although mobile wireless subscriptions have increased (and represent about 43% of the connections over 3 Mbps in America), that doesn’t mean that more American individuals are getting connected to the Internet at high speeds. It means that more Americans, many of whom already have slow wires at home, are buying smartphones."
