Frost & Sullivan will host a conference call on Wednesday 11 July 2007 at 15.00 BST entitled "Will Mobile WiMAX deliver mobility?". This live briefing will provide industry participants with an overview of the key challenges for Mobile WiMAX and will explore whether this emerging technology can create a significant impact on the mobile broadband industry.

A recently published Frost & Sullivan research service provides in-depth analysis of various mobile broadband wireless access technologies such as Mobile WiMAX, xMax and 3G LTE. The study evaluated whether delays pertaining to Wave 1 and Wave 2 WiMAX Forum certification for Mobile WiMAX and its inability to support mobile VoIP at vehicular speeds could pave the way for other competing technologies to take over the mobile broadband wireless access market.

This briefing is based upon ongoing Mobile & Wireless industry analysis. The report provides an insight into the dynamics guiding this market, and includes market challenges, drivers, restraints and avenues of opportunity for growth. The briefing will discuss some of the key restraints and challenges faced by Mobile WiMAX today and will focus on what this technology can deliver compared to the initial hype. It will also provide a roadmap for the kinds of services that Mobile WiMAX can deliver and the initial client devices that the technology will be focused on. This call will benefit to all Mobile WiMAX terminal vendors, service providers, chipset manufacturers and equipment vendors.

"If Mobile WiMAX needs to be a competing technology to existing well established technologies such as HSDPA and the future 3G LTE standard, it is imperative that interoperability testing for Mobile WiMAX complying to Wave 2 certification is done at the earliest as not many in the market are interested in Wave 1 certification considering it does not include MIMO and Beamforming, which is vital for Mobile WiMAX's success" says Luke Thomas, Program Manager for Frost & Sullivan's Mobile & Wireless group.

Frost & Sullivan will hold this conference call at 15.00 BST on Wednesday 11 July 2007 which will provide industry participants with an outlook on the Mobile & Wireless market.
