Research Snapshot: Wireless Technology V2Research Snapshot: Wireless Technology V2

Wireless technology is increasingly essential. Corporate wireless spending will exceed 20%-30% of telecom budgets during 2001, even as overall costs decrease, and wireless voice usage will surpass that of wireline during 2003/04. This Research Snapshot covers wireless data connectivity options for mobile workers; the effect of improving cellular price/performance on corporate branch exchange architectures and telecom contracts; the impact of the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) on customer interaction and field integration; and implementation of development and runtime services to support wireless applications.
