MediaFLO USA Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of QUALCOMM Incorporated, and Verizon Wireless, which operates the nation's most reliable wireless networks, congratulate the FLO Forum for its success in gaining official approval and publication of the FLO Air Interface Specification (AIS) by the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) TR- 47.1 Subcommittee. The TIA's approval is a significant milestone in the progression of FLO technology's standardization and will help accelerate the delivery and adoption of mobile media services offered by MediaFLO USA to domestic wireless operators.
