Motorola Promotes Ecosystem to Pave Way for Growing Adoption of WiMAX at WiMAX Strategies 20069 June 2006
Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT), a leading provider of broadband wireless access technologies, has been at the forefront of promoting WiMAX as a cost-effective means for delivering wireless connectivity for fixed, portable, and mobile applications. Dan Coombes, senior vice president and chief technology officer, Motorola Networks and Enterprise, will deliver a keynote address: "Creating an End-to-End Ecosystem for WiMAX Networks", at WiMAX Strategies 2006 to discuss how the company is collaborating to develop a comprehensive ecosystem for satisfying global demands for personal broadband "on the go," and for promoting the universal adoption of this standards-based technology.
WiMAX, built on the technology heritage of WiFi, is designed to effectively and efficiently connect devices to the Internet and expand data and voice services across wide areas. Coombes will talk about the market opportunity for WiMAX, including the many services and applications that will be enabled by the technology. He will also provide a detailed overview of its benefits and capabilities -- for operators, manufacturers, content providers and consumers -- to answer the growing question, "Why WiMAX?"
"As with any new technology, developing an ecosystem is an essential step in advancing its adoption and driving volume, which in turn lowers the costs to make it more affordable -- not just for the operators who deploy it but for the consumers who drive its popularity as well," said Coombes.
A replay of the Coombes' keynote presentation will be available beginning at 1:00 p.m. CDT June 8, 2006, at http://www.motorola.com/investor .
