Dual Mode, Femto and UMA! Oh my!

I asked Steve Shaw, Associate VP of Marketing, what he sees in the marketplace today and how to put the choices associated with Femtocells and Dual-Mode phones in perspective.

Steve writes the UMA Today and his analysis of the carrier strategies in the US and the worldwide market trends has the benefit of breadth.
