Signs of the Times

(Today's Guest entry comes from Mike Foster, CMO and Co-Founder of MediaTile) 

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 for 4G-enabled solutions. They see 4G as a true transformation of their  (and others') industry - enabling a whole new generation of connected M2M (Machine to Machine) devices extending beyond traditional handheld devices. MediaTile has been living this vision since its inception, with our embedded 3G and emerging 4G cellular digital signage platform. But now, with 4G, we can offer revolutionary products and services such as the 4G HumanKiosk with 2-way video.

From MediaTile’s perspective, where 3G cellular digital signage solutions were engaging,  4G solutions will be truly immersive.  And since we’re supporting both platforms, 4G WiMax and 4G LTE, we’ve got all bases covered.
