The Shosteck Group…New Products!…
| “You speak the truth. Having known you and the Group a long time, I can concur that you’ve been right on almost every insight about the wireless industry since the early days. Everyone keeps suggesting that “this time,” everything is different, but I agree with you. We’ve lost a lot of historical memory in the last 6 years, and a lot of avoidable mistakes are being made all over again by a bunch of new managers new to the industry, thinking everything is like the ISP, media, or retail businesses where they gained their previous experience. Keep at it - you still have a lot to teach the industry given all the interesting new applications that higher speeed connections enable!”–Matt Desch, Chairman and CEO, Iridium Satellite, LLC. (December, 2007) |

Low Cost Voice - Accelerating the 3G Transition :A New Complimentary White Paper
This white paper analyzes how an increasing mix of data and voice traffic will provide additional impetus for operators to accelerate a transition to 3G. As a result of falling tariffs and ensuing traffic gains, the transition to 3G – in both developed and emerging markets – will happen sooner than many expect. In many areas, the traffic gains will surpass the economic capacity of conventional GSM networks. As that occurs, operators will willingly shift to 3G. Click here to order this free white paper

‘Balanced Business Model’ – In-Company Workshop:
In collaboration with Geoff Varrall of RTT Programmes and John Tysoe of The Mobile World, these Shosteck Group workshops work to resolve disconnects between market and business ambition and technology and engineering resource constraints. The workshop identifies opportunities for maximizing investment returns and building ‘balanced business models’ that deliver practical competitive advantage.
The methodology is based on developing market, technology, and engineering ‘profit and loss accounts’, translating technology and engineering risk metrics into market and business fiscal balance sheets that can be used to facilitate and validate cross discipline decision making.
