User Perspectives on Fixed and Mobile Convergence in Wireless Networks

Boston, MA - 4 December 2007 - Strategy Analytics analyst, Asif Anwar, is presenting his paper, "The User Perspective on FMC and its Implications for the Macro Network" today. Mr. Anwar will explore user expectations for Fixed and Mobile Convergence (FMC), routes to FMC including WCDMA, LTE, WiMAX and WiFi, and handset support and pull for FMC services at the 6th International Basestation Conference in Dallas, Texas.

"As mobile handsets become all pervasive, users are seeking to use a single personal device for all communications and there is a concern that fixed telephony technology will be threatened. However, Strategy Analytics FMC research shows that there is room for both of them," according to Stephen Entwistle, VP Strategic Technologies at Strategy Analytics.
