I’m here at CTIA in San
Francisco, and the show theme is the “Wireless
Enterprise”. So what better time than now for Verizon
Wireless to announce their 4G LTE launch plans? Verizon
Wireless President and COO, Lowell McAdam, unveiled the company’s
plans to launch 4G LTE services in 38 cities, covering 110
million people by the end of the year. Big news
indeed!
I
was equally impressed by the vision that Verizon Wireless, as
well as Sprint and other carriers, share...

Today we are showcasing MediaTile’s award-winning HumanKiosk
prototype in Sprint’s booth at the CTIA

If you are planning on attending CTIA this week, please stop by and
I’ll give you a demonstration of this next-generation interactive

It was also great to see Sprint announce its new Command Center

MediaTile’s HumanKiosk
was again on center stage, this time in Tampa, Florida, at another
Sprint 4G Roadshow event. The HumanKiosk is a next-generation
digital signage prototype that draws a lot of attention and
interest as it showcases a high-definition, interactive digital
signage platform with the unique addition of a live, 2-way
video chat session using our MediaCast Video Presence
software.
The all-in-one system only requires power to work – making it
highly suitable for retailers, brands, hospitals, banks and a host
of other locations...

Years ago, it wasn't easy to track down quality research on digital
signage. But iff you're just now getting into the technology,
there's a wealth of information at your fingertips.
There are a host of great blogs out there, but many times
corporations are fascinated by the almighty white paper. And
fortunately,
Digital Signage
Today is a great resource for these more authoritative
resources. Many are sponsored by vendors in the digital signage
space (including this
one on 3G/4G
cellular by
MediaTile) but they are all very well written...

(Today's Guest entry comes from Mike Foster, CMO and Co-Founder
of MediaTile) On my morning commute, I couldn’t help but draw the analogy
between the business value that 4G brings to the digital signage
market with flying cars. A strange thought, true,
but while stuck in traffic, I began to ponder the problems LAN and
Wi-Fi networks present to digital signage as being similar to roads
and infrastructure, and how 3G and 4G completely eliminates these
barriers.
LAN and Wi-Fi networks, like roads, limit where you can go, and
are costly deploy and...

I was delighted to see
that our new 3G/4G Cellular-based Digital Signage Whitepaper has
made the Top10 list of downloads at Digital Signage Today. It’s
great to see that there is a ton of interest in 3G and 4G based
digital signage solutions, and that interest continues to grow
among resellers and customers.
Recently, I’ve
attended and demonstrated our 4G-based solutions in Sacramento, at
the Government Technology Conference, and at a Sprint 4G Launch
Event in Kansas...

Sprint has included our 3G/4G cellular digital signage as a key
element in their public 4G road-shows, the first of which is in
Kansas City this week.
Our

“vignettes”, showcasing the live, 2-way video chat using our
MediaCast SaaS content

Cellular
and SaaS-based Digital Signage solutions have finally come of
age. Over the past quarter, I’ve attended
CES,
Digital Signage Expo 2010,
The Digital Signage Show,
KioskCom, and
NAB, and it was clear that
cloud computing is definitely on everyone’s radar. And
most everyone is seeing the silver lining of this solution – the
inherent reliability, simplicity, scalability and security that it
provides.
Customers, strategic partners, vendors, and managed service
providers are much clearer on the pros and cons of a cloud-based

As a child of the 80s, I labeled myself a G.I. Joe man, but I did
watch the Transformers every day (this was of course Transformers
pre-Megan Fox) and even had a few of the toys. Though I'm still a
bit peeved that I never had the original Optimus Prime. That
wound is still fresh.
The cartoon's beginning had a catchy little tune that went a little
something like this:
The Transformers, more than
meets the eye,
The Transformers, robots In disguise.
Last week, MediaTile announced a new
digital
signage product that, too, is "more than meets...
