I don't think it means so much that prices will go up, just that it will slow the decline.

But having said that, it appears that we are in for a spate of inflation generally and the prices of everything are going to rise fairly quickly, starting about now.

That would be across the economy as a whole and not anything specific to the telecommunications sector.
