UMA for dummies

Okay, you snob WAP and 3G services since their launches, but this time, you feel there’s something big that is happening right now. And you want to jump in the bandwagon as soon as possible. Glenn Fleishman, in his August 1st podcast, ask Kineto Wireless what the next telecoms round would be.

Kineto Wireless has been one of the drivers behind industry acceptance of UMA, a standard for cellular and Wi-Fi voice convergence in which a single handset will roam as seamlessly among both wireless network types as a cell phone can already roam from tower to tower. In this podcast, we discuss how UMA works, what the potential is, whether hotspots are important to it, where the money can be saved, and when it’s coming to market.
