Summary
  • Wireless personal communications represents the fastest-growing segment of the global telecommunications market. Today, 20 cents out of every dollar in revenue for telecommunications providers comes from wireless communications. By the year 2008, that figure is expected to quadruple.
  • A "sequel" to Wireless Personal Communications, Ron Schneiderman's bestselling book on the emergence of wireless technologies, Future Talk delves even further into the dynamic future of wireless telecommunications and the many opportunities it will bring. This non-technical book provides a detailed, up-to-date look at the ever-changing wireless industry and its impact on the way we do business.
  • Well-organized and easy-to-follow, Future Talk is a must for readers at every level - from engineers and scientists to managers, marketing and sales professionals, students, and technicians across industries.
