SOMA Networks Signs Contract with NTT Communications for Deployment of Wireless Broadband 'Last-Mile' Solution. Read full press release.
PluggedIn: Fed Up with DSL? Go Wireless
Tue Jun 25, 1:43 PM ET
By Reed Stevenson
SEATTLE (Reuters) - Fed up with the long wait for high-speed Internet access?
After digital subscriber line services promising high-speed Net access over existing copper telephone wires fell well short of expectations -- with lengthy delays and installation problems -- a new wireless technology will come out later this year that promises to eliminate the hassle of getting broadband at home.
It's a wireless connection based on third-generation mobile phone technology that will bypass problematic wire and cable networks to deliver fast Internet and telephone access to homes and businesses over airwaves.
"My impression is that people want broadband, and they're not concerned whether its 100 K (kilobits per second) or 1 Meg (megabits per second)," said Greg Caltabiano, Soma Networks Inc.'s senior vice president for Worldwide Networks.
"They just want it to work," he said.
Wireless technology developer Soma's solution is a box that users can buy in a shop or have sent to them at home that will work the moment the power is turned on, with minimal installation and configuration.
It will look like a cable modem ( news - web sites) but send and receive signals via a wireless connection based on W-CDMA ( news - web sites), or wideband code division multiple access, one of the wireless technologies that will power the next generation of mobile phones.
So where can you get this new contraption, which has ethernet and telephone ports and sounds too simple to be true?
Telephone carriers and Internet services providers will be providing it under their own brands in the second half of this year, Caltabiano said, adding that users should look for the buzzwords "easy-to-use," "hassle-free" and "works out of the box."
While the number of broadband cable, DSL or high-speed network users has grown to 25 million, that only represents about one-tenth of the U.S. population and underscores the huge potential for growth in the market for fast Internet access.
San Francisco-based Soma says that it has been able to bring the costs of operating a broadband network low enough for carriers to deploy the new broadband technology at competitive rates.
That doesn't mean it will be slow, however. Access speeds are expected to be upward of 12 megabits per second -- more than 200 times the speed of a regular dial-up connection.
LAST MILE TO NO MILE?
The issue essentially concerns "last-mile" connections, the last hop that carriers and Internet service providers need to link their networks into people's homes.
Often, telephone networks are built on old copper wires, which were only meant to carry voice calls as analog signals.
And decades ago, cable companies delivering television to homes had no idea that they would one day compete with phone companies for subscriber dollars.
Still, the disillusionment with DSL has been more the result of the hype that preceded it, rather than the actual speed of deployment, argues Lee Rainie, a director of the Pew Project, which tracks online user trends.
"We see pretty steady growth that matches the adoption of other technologies," he said.
But for carriers, that's not enough, as they seek to deliver good news amid a prolonged telecoms slump that has punished their share prices.
Last week, Verizon Communications teamed up with Microsoft Corp. to co-brand its DSL service with MSN, Microsoft's Web portal and Internet access service.
Covad Communications Group Inc. rolled out a new high-speed Internet service last week with a price tag 20 percent lower than the typical $50 per month charged by phone giants like Verizon and SBC Communications.
Covad's proposition avoids over-promising on DSL services: they offer lower rates in return for slower speeds and more reliable DSL access.
Soma's Caltabiano said that carriers -- although he declined to identify which ones -- have been looking for a way to solve the high costs associated with deploying DSL and have held extensive trials with its wireless broadband technology.
In Japan, Soma will be delivering its technology to NTT Communications Corp, the Internet and long-distance arm of the incumbent former state telecoms monopoly, which is marketing its broadband Internet technology as an alternative to wireless LAN (local area networks).
But unlike wireless LAN, the Soma-based network will be secure and proprietary, thus shutting out nonpaying users that log in and eat up bandwidth.
So where can you get this in the United States? Well, that too, is a secret.
"By the second half of this year there will be a number of different areas where this will be provided," he said.
Firm Unveils Ultra-Wideband Chip
Mon Jun 24, 1:48 PM ET
Jay Wrolstad, Wireless.NewsFactor.com
A chipset designed to make commercial use of promising ultra-wideband technology has been unveiled by XtremeSpectrum, one of a small number of companies working on the deployment of wireless technology that transmits a low power signal over a wide swath of radio spectrum.
• FCC Mulls Thin-Band Wireless Spectrum
• Why 2002 Is Not the Year for 3G
• Intel: Building the Networks of the Future
In February, the Federal Communications Commission ( news - web sites) approved unlicensed use of ultra-wideband (UWB), which has applications for public safety, home networking and high-speed data transmission. Until recently, UWB had been used primarily by the government.
XtremeSpectrum is exclusively focused on the communications segment, specifically the wireless consumer connectivity market, "which we believe to be the largest opportunity," marketing vice president Chris Fisher told Wireless NewsFactor. The company is targeting such videocentric applications as DVDs, TVs, large displays and digital cameras, among others.
On the Pulse
UWB is revolutionary in that it delivers broadband wireless communications without using radio waves on specific spectrum bands. Rather, data is transmitted using time- and amplitude-modulated pulses of energy, less than one nanosecond in duration, across a wide swath of frequencies.
Unlike conventional radio systems that operate within a narrow bandwidth, such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi (802.11b or 802.11a), UWB operates across a wide range of frequency spectrum by transmitting a series of very narrow and low-power pulses.
UWB can coexist with carrier frequency uses without interference. In granting widespread use of the technology, the FCC ( news - web sites) said that by reusing RF spectrum, UWB ushers in a array of communications options to ease the growing bandwidth crunch. However, it could present a serious challenge to the cellular industry.
Eliminating Boundaries
With UWB, wireless transmission rates of 500 megabits are possible, with an eventual capacity in the gigabit range. The broad spectral nature of UWB pulses enables wireless communications to penetrate walls and obstacles better than existing technologies, and it also delivers positional accuracy on UWB-enabled devices to within one-centimeter resolution.
In complying with the FCC's rules for unlicensed usage, XtremeSpectrum has created a chipset, dubbed Trinity, that the company said offers 100 megabits per second (Mbps) data rates and consumes less than 200 milliwatts of power.
Applications for Trinity (so named for delivering low price, low power and high data rate) include the transmission of multimedia files through consumer electronics products such as digital displays, camcorders, DVD players, digital video recorders and digital cameras.
Power Play
With its low power consumption, UWB is similar to Bluetooth short-range wireless technology, IDC analyst Jason Smolek said. The major difference: It is considerably more powerful.
"It has a lot of possibilities in home networking and commercial electronics uses, in everything from set-top boxes to digital cameras," he told Wireless NewsFactor. "But there are concerns over its intrusive nature and the threats to cellular networks. Carriers and technology providers like Qualcomm ( Nasdaq: QCOM - news) are very wary of ultra-wideband."
The technology also has drawn the attention of military agencies and the airline industry because it involves the sharing of spectrum and could interfere with GPS (global positioning system ( news - web sites)) transmissions.
Still Years Away
As for the rollout of UWB products, Smolek said consumers should not be holding their breath. There may be a smattering of offerings from electronics manufacturers (mostly in Japan) before Christmas, but widespread adoption is not expected until 2005 or 2006. "Approval is required from regulatory agencies worldwide," he pointed out.
The Trinity chipset comprises four chips: a medium-access control (MAC) function, a digital baseband function, a RF (radio frequency) transmit and receive function and a low noise amplifier.
The cost is US$19.95 each in quantities of 100,000, and commercial production is expected in first half 2003, XtremeSpectrum said.
Competition in the Field
Vienna, Virginia-based XtremeSpectrum faces competition from other UWB technology providers, such as Time Domain and PulseLink Technologies.
Their interests in UWB include applications for high-definition digital video networking and local area networks (LANs) linking computers, cell phones, PDAs and other mobile handheld products, entertainment systems, cable and satellite set top boxes, and security systems.
While these companies are vying to be the first to roll out commercial uses of UWB, Smolek said that both Intel ( Nasdaq: INTC - news) and Cisco ( news - web sites) ( Nasdaq: CSCO - news) have expressed interest in the technology and are well positioned to dominate the market.

It's inevitable that we'll see a tech recovery and a telecom recovery. These sectors make up the fabric of how the world works and plays. They're embedded in people's daily lives. But as the broader tech sector recovers, the telecom industry won't be the leading indicator. Instead, you will see general economic improvement that will allow service providers to begin growing revenues. Only then will equipment providers begin to build out networks again.
One thing is certain: We won't make the same mistakes twice. Now we're looking to the development of new products at Bell Labs that are exciting not only for the short term, but that are also capable of real, long-term revolution in the industry. We're excited to announce things like a single-molecule transistor, a product that uses multi-antennae to boost wireless connections, and software that enables the convergence of data, voice, and video networks onto a single infrastructure backbone.
Most important, these new data, wireless, and optical products have a remarkable level of intelligence. They can survey the network and discover what other elements are available, and then they can configure themselves. These are tasks that used to take 100 or more people to solve and configure by hand. Intelligence in networking is absolutely the next wave of technology.

Over the past few years, we've talked about technology as if it were a stand-alone product -- something that either does or doesn't "sell well." But it is really an enabler for an awful lot of the great products that have made life better for all of us, including cars, computers, PDAs, and phones. Because technology enables these things, any broad recovery will be felt immediately in the technology arena. Tech is the sweetener in the lemonade, you might say. That said, I don't see any significant signs of a recovery in the next quarter or two.
When recovery does come, communications will be the technology category to watch. There is no question that the need and the demand for connectivity is there, and the communications revolution is just beginning. Whether you are in the office, at home, or in the car, you want to connect intelligently to the relevant things in your life. There are 6 billion people in the world, and only a small percentage are broadband connected right now. That's a tremendous opportunity.
This slowdown has given companies the opportunity to innovate. We already know that technology is capable of doing things beyond anything we ever imagined. But let me underline this: The engine of real economic growth is not technology but innovation. And only the companies who are customer-centric in their innovation will succeed.
Hector de J. Ruiz was named CEO of Advanced Micro Devices in April 2002, succeeding the company's founding CEO, W.J. Sanders III. Previously, he was AMD's president and COO. Ruiz came to AMD from Motorola, where he spent 22 years as an engineer and executive in various positions both in the United States and overseas

Buy Stocks Now
Kenneth L. Fisher, 07.08.02, 12:00 AM ET
Even if it's not the start of a real bull market, the rebound should last long enough to vaporize Wall Street's emerging consensus that there can't be a big up-move soon.
It is finally time to get fully invested, although maybe only temporarily. Investors have dug down into pessimism too far for stocks not to pop upward nicely. My shift may surprise recent readers, who have seen me unremittingly bearish for 18 months. But bear markets last only so long. Why now?
Among the most basic market rules is that the market discounts all known information. To be bearish, you must see bad things others don't. One and two years ago I could (see prior columns on my Web page). Now I can't. Simply agreeing with others about the world's evident evils won't hack it.
What's so horrific now? The global economy is no longer collapsing. Layoffs have largely laid off. Corporate scandals abound and everyone expects more ahead, and that is discounted into pricing. And we know the terrorists will be terrible--our government now guarantees it, even promising that there will be future attacks. No surprise, so terrorism can't impact markets much. And everyone knows the market isn't statistically cheap, so valuations won't impact pricing. What will? Something basic.
Stock prices derive solely from shifts in supply and demand for stocks, nothing else. We can't think that way because our information-processing capability was hard-wired between the ears eons before stock markets. None of us arises daily gleefully contemplating supply and demand. No, our psyches evolved to deal with hunting and gathering--and their functional replacements, like earnings (rain), interest rates (wind), politics (tribes), trends (seasons), demographics (squalling kids) and demagogues (neighboring chieftains). We don't focus on supply and demand for securities. That's alien.
tigerannie...my prayers are out to you and yours and the brave firemen...keep us informed
greenmonkey...dont get me wrong...i believe ill be worm bait when i die....period..thats why i lived life on the edge and spent enormous amounts of money to live it like that...its only now and 4 kids later that i wish i had 10% of dough i pissed away....hence gambling in stock market again.....
always proving to the weak minded he is watching us!!!
o/t...we all are trapped in this bear market,worrying about our money(at least i am depressed over losses) BUT
we have a miracle reported today and noone has paid attention to it!!
gods covenant that he would never destroy mankind again!!!!
WELL A ASTEROID THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED GLOBAL CATASTROPHE HAS MISSED EARTH BY 1/3 THE DISTANCE OF EART TO MOON OR ONLY 330000 MILES!UNDETECTED!!TILL 3 DAYS PAST EARTH!
life is too short...love it!!!GOD IS GREAT! THANKYOU LORD
stop the panic selling! time to buy long and invest in america!!!Capitulation vs. the loss of hope
A fundamental thesis of the market pessimists who wrote to us is that we need a washout -- a vicious decline on extraordinary volume -- to blast the weak longs and lay the groundwork for a new bull market. To be sure, there have been occasions in which this scenario played out, most notably in October 1987. Such capitulation represents market anxiety: it is a panic reaction in which the bulk of individual investors are seized by the impulse to just sell everything at once.
A capitulation of equal import, though not of such dramatic character, can be found in investor depression. Instead of throwing stocks away out of anxiety, investors lose hope in the market. They become convinced that any investments they make are bound to lose. Volume decreases and sentiment becomes extraordinarily negative. It was precisely this scenario that preceded the great bull market in August 1982.
We suggest that this latter situation, rather than anxious capitulation, has seized the market. Indeed, many people wrote in to explain why they had lost hope. We received this heart-wrenching report from a couple in Minnesota: “Our advisors, in February of 2000, advised us to stay invested. We have lost 40% of our retirement portfolio as a result and will not recover in this lifetime.”
The tone of such investors is not one of panic. Rather, it is what psychologist Martin Seligman has called “learned helplessness”: the sense that one can no longer influence the outcomes of his or her life. It forms, he believes, the basis for depression.
While investors are looking for that high-volume spike as a sign of final capitulation, they may be missing the very capitulation of depression that is staring us in the face. But how can we prove this market-depression thesis? For that, we turned to our market psychologist, Dr. Brett Steenbarger.
Counting the consensus
The sentiment surveys of Market Vane (see link in sidebar at left) are useful tools for gauging optimism and pessimism, since they poll market advisers and commodity trading advisers for their opinions of market direction. Each week the surveys summarize the percentage of advisers who hold bullish anticipations of the market. This statistic is called the Bullish Consensus.
Steenbarger went back to April of and examined all occasions in which the Bullish Consensus had fallen below 30%. This was a rare occurrence. Out of 1,051 weeks, only 64 showed this extreme level of hopelessness. A visual inspection of the dates, however, suggests that these included some of the best buying opportunities of the past two decades, including August 1982; July 1984; October 1987; April 1994; October 1998; May 2000; March 2001; and September 2001.
According to Steenbarger, a shocking surprise can be found in the distribution of the Market Vane readings. Of the 64 occasions since 1982 when advisers have found little optimism, 40 of these have occurred since the beginning of 2000! In other words, from 1982-1999, less than 3% of all weeks were characterized by adviser hopelessness. From 2000 to the present, however, almost a third of the weeks reached the hopeless level.
This is what we mean by a “capitulation of depression.” In the past, hopeless readings on the Market Vane survey quickly turned around; now those readings are much stickier. Hopelessness feeds on hopelessness, as in Finney’s tale. It isn’t well appreciated, but we are living through a period of negativity of historic proportions -- the absence of high-volume capitulation notwithstanding.
Health, optimism and healthy optimism
So how do depressed markets regain their health? Perhaps not surprisingly, in the exact same way that depressed people do. Long before things get much better, they stop getting worse. The selling and the negativity continues, but stock by stock, sector by sector, issues stop making fresh lows. Lost in the high visibility move of the Nasdaq averages to multiyear lows is the fact that many indices -- from small cap ($SML.X) to midcap ($MID.X) to consumer ($CMR.X) to cyclical ($CYC.X) -- have remained staunchly above their September 2001 lows.
Why is this important? Because the last seven weeks of readings in the Market Vane survey have all been below 30%. This has never occurred before. And despite that negativity, a majority of stocks have not exceeded their September lows. Things are still bad, but they are not getting worse. At the height of last week’s selling, we saw fewer than 150 annual new lows among New York Stock Exchange issues. And for depressed markets, like depressed patients, that is grounds for optimism.
You see, health -- of our bodies or of the markets -- depends upon a healthy dose of optimism. Studies by psychologist Seligman and other colleagues find that people who fight off depression by changing their thinking patterns subsequently experience greater physical health. They also take better care of themselves and thus live longer. People with an optimistic attitude, rather than one of anger or hopelessness, are significantly more likely to return to normal activities within six months after treatment of a serious illness. Why? Because optimism bolsters the human immune system.
We believe that this may be what is happening now, as in Mill Valley. A threshold level of investors has developed immunity to the negativism of the pods, and they are now helping keep the majority of stocks from sweeping to new lows. Think of it: in the face of historic pessimism, more than 60% of NYSE stocks rest above their 200-day moving averages! Someone, somewhere, is fighting the pods.
Standing firm
So that is why we are not waiting on the sidelines for a high volume bloodbath that may well not materialize. To be sure, investing would be easier if the market handed us buying opportunities on a silver platter by leaving blood on the street at each buying juncture.
The market, however, is far subtler. It is like those pod people, lulling you into waiting, pretending that the bears are your best friends -- until a sustained rally emerges from out of the blue. At present, the only question to us is whether there is enough fear in the market, enough perceived risk, to induce one to believe that the returns in the future will be rewarding. Our counts of the predictive properties of myriad numerical measures -- the succession of 40-day lows, the move in the CBOE Volatility Index ($VIX.X) above the critical 30% level, the highs in fixed-income prices in conjunction with the decline in stocks -- continue to lead us to believe it’s time to take a stand.
We have every confidence that our own buying and that of other optimistic market participants who refuse to give up will waft stocks to higher levels. Our column came out on a Thursday, and since that time the nine stocks we recommended have been approximately unchanged: WorldCom (WCOM, news, msgs), Charter Communications (CHTR, news, msgs), Vitesse Semiconductor (VTSS, news, msgs), i2 Technologies (ITWO, news, msgs), Citrix Systems (CTXS, news, msgs), Sanmina-SCI (SANM, news, msgs), Nvidia (NVDA, news, msgs), Dell Computer (DELL, news, msgs) and Federal Express (FDX, news, msgs). Still battling the pods, standing firm against seven weeks of historic negative sentiment, we believe that those stocks, and many others like them, are ready to roll.

why not just get the tech....ready for real world trials and if successful....sell tech to highest bidder?
bill.will that be conventional funding? a little upfront advanced money? with cash burnt and 3 month going concern,DO you think thats why the recent selloff?
prettylady...did you meet ray while he was in florida?
btw...manihui....bid is 83 cents!...
o/t prettylady, can you email me at mikecentury21@hotmail.com
family you said....The telcos are desperate to compete against cable providers and New Visual is standing in front of them with the solution. The best is coming.
SUPPOSEDLY NEW VISUAL HAS HAD THAT SOLUTION FOR 2-3 YEARS.
WHY HASNT ANY TELCO ADVANCED ROYALTIES TO NVEI FOR THEIR LAST MILE SOLUTION?
imo there is no solution..yet....didnt you read coopers message and john howells? no more 52mbs over 9000 ft.
do you read the sec filings?
the co. has no cash and as cooper has said....much more is needed hence anutter 3 month going concern!!!
WITH NVEI BOD SALARIES AT OR NEAR A COOL MILLION A YEAR AND LAST YEAR R&D BUDGET OF ONLY 1.2 MILLION......YOU DONT SEE A PROBLEM HERE???????
greg,elder,i lost my dad at 16..miss him much..god bless and dad,ill see you in heaven....guaranteed
HAPPY FATHERS DAY ALL DADS!!!
greg,i disagree.imo and yes this is my opinion,the dream of having a disruptive product is over!.best cooper can do is generate revenues through any hardware products. its obvious (al and mike lawsuit)that al and mikes core tech was dismissed by dr propp as inhouse lab only hence al and mikes abrupt firing!. alot of people made tons of money when pps went from 25 cents to 7.75 pre reverse split blunder.reality is cooper will not be able to even come close to a 52 mbs over 9000 ft that was promised by old regime for years to you loyal sheep! read coopers message on state of telecommunications industry....heck even worldcom is below 2 dollars pps,...also as per 10q,nvei is broke again...the salaries nvei bod are taking is enormous! consultants and insiders were paid 2.8 million and tech r&d only 1.2 million..EVEN YOU GREG MUST KNOW IM RIGHT....THE SEC FILINGS TELL THE REAL STORY!
no posts on nvei 10q? why not? lol
obvious cooper is realistic.....1 year at best for any signs of tech revenue imo....with telco getting destroyed,there is no money for otcbb companies r&d....got to hold 1 dollar here or .55 gap filler coming.
low volume mm walkdown. does anyone know if ani/propp had prior experience with,DISTANCE DRIVERS?
in reply to all those fellow christians who email greg and matt all day looking to ban me.....i have not yet reached my goal and i am not perfect. but christ has taken hold of me. this is the prize that god offers because of what jesus has done....
from nvei pr...does this seal the fact that al and mikes core tech was scrapped and nvei is actually developing ani/propp powerline tech over copper?
Dr. Propp stated, ``We have concluded that the adaptive equalization technology embodied in PowerStream, which has proven successful for our customers over powerlines, is also well suited for New Visual's target applications over standard telephone wire. Since we first began working with New Visual, it was apparent that a long-term strategic partnership between our companies was in the making. New Visual has demonstrated an extraordinary ability to attract accomplished people across a variety of business and scientific disciplines. We are delighted to align our technology with a group we believe can make the most of it in this exciting field.''
spokeshave...i dont think vdsl is implemented in the real world...i think its adsl and 1.5 mbs or 1.5 x 5 =7.5mbs...not really disruptive at all.but spokeshave as excel has pointed out many times nvei is a DISTANCE DRIVER!!
yes greg, sorry....in answer to mikey j....
im a big believer that wireless will be the standard and future.
i also feel that bigger funded last mile solution chasers will solve the last mile over copper long before nvei even gets to a big telco field trial...this is my opinion for now till nvei/cooper updates progress if any does occur.
then my money goes on line....btw if i buy nvei, short it..lol

Wireless Giants Say They Are Ready to Play Nice
By Kenneth Li
Senior Writer

Nokia (NOK:NYSE ADR - news - commentary - research - analysis) to Microsoft (MSFT:Nasdaq - news - commentary - research - analysis): Give peace a chance.
In what's shaping up to be a sign of coexistence between the two heated combatants in the global mobile-handset arena, both have agreed to get in bed on a new gigantic umbrella organizing body, dubbed the Open Mobile Alliance on wireless data.
The new organization, made up of a blue ribbon panel of carriers, technology providers and handset manufacturers including IBM (IBM:NYSE - news - commentary - research - analysis), Sun Microsystems (SUNW:Nasdaq - news - commentary - research - analysis), NTT DoCoMo (DCM:NYSE ADR - news - commentary - research - analysis), Symbian, Texas Instruments (TXN:NYSE - news - commentary - research - analysis) and Intel (INTC:Nasdaq - news - commentary - research - analysis), is designed to help bring a sort of global-tech lingua franca to the Tower of Babel in the wireless data business.
The goal is to create a framework through which companies will be able to create technology, devices and services that are interoperable worldwide, something that has remained a challenge for some time.
If successful, two cell-phone users on opposite sides of the globe would be able to send data to each other regardless of carrier or region.
It's an industry first, bringing Nokia and Mister Softee under one roof, but it's one fraught with uncertainties. Since last year, the two have been circling each other in the next-generation handset ring, proselytizing for the virtues of their competing handset-operating systems. The major handset manufacturers, including Nokia, Motorola (MOT:NYSE - news - commentary - research - analysis), Sony (SNE:NYSE ADR - news - commentary - research - analysis) Ericsson (ERICY:Nasdaq ADR - news - commentary - research - analysis) and Siemens (SI:NYSE ADR - news - commentary - research - analysis), are intent on protecting what they view as their control of how consumers communicate.
Microsoft, the wireless arena gate-crasher, also has designs on the handset market, seeing it as an extension of its personal computing hegemony.
The roar reached a crescendo last November at the annual Comdex meeting, when Nokia Chief Executive Jorma Ollila used the keynote as a pulpit for advancing the Nokia world view by announcing the formation of an organizing body similar to the one announced Tuesday.
In his speech, Ollila also mentioned plans to license Nokia's version of the Symbian operating system, called the Series 60. But perhaps more important was the announcement of an organizing body called the Open Mobile Architecture initiative, also composed of a panel of handset and technology competitors, excepting the Redmond, Wash., software giant. The move was widely regarded as the first public missive against Microsoft, say observers.
The decision Tuesday to not only bring Microsoft to the table, but combine a smorgasbord of parallel initiatives, such as the Wireless Village Intiative devoted to instant messaging, the MMS Interoperability Group and SyncML, stems from a desire to squeeze profit to offset the billions in capital expenditures dumped on third-generation networks and the licenses spent on bidding for the spectrum.
But mostly it's out of desperation. Since the beginning of the year, Nokia has seen its shares halved as wireless stocks have lost favor among investors and on Wall Street. Once a growth engine helping to fuel the tech stock market boom, wireless stocks have taken a massive hit, as companies continue to reduce expectations quarter by quarter. In the past five quarters, Nokia has had to reduce forecasts four times. Global handset-sales volume, once projected to be more than 600 million by the end of this year, has been reduced to around 385 million, nearly on par with last year's volume.
Analysts were cautious about the significance of the latest consortium, perhaps numbed by a litany of promises by the industry in the past.
"To me this is kind of not as big a news event as it may have seemed at first glance," says Bryan Prohm, wireless analyst at The Gartner Group.
While "any efforts to create a more unified approach in standardization is great, [there's been] more divergence than convergence" in the work so far. Privately, other Wall Street observers joked that the so-called "wireless Web" is little more than an oxymoron.
For its part, Microsoft has found some reason to put aside its differences, if only for a moment.
"Now we're taking a seat at the head of the table in working to drive [the] wireless standard in a significant way that could impact mobile users," said Ed Suwanjindar, product manager of the Mobility Group at Microsoft. "We are cautiously optimistic about the new endeavor, but it's a significant step."
