Arlington, Va. - Wireless revenue in the U.S. totaled $174.7 billion last year, up nearly 11% from the prior year, according to new statistics from the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA). The organization said that carriers added 25 million new subscribers during the year -- the highest number ever. Nearly two-thirds of the U.S. population has now subscribed to a wireless service.
