About the Event
  Device Management Summit:  
Low Cost Device Deployment & User Support
Tuesday June 24, 2008
Santa Clara Convention Center, Santa Clara, USA
This seminar on “Low-Cost Device Deployment and User Support” addresses the growing management requirement generated by increasingly intelligent interconnected devices found in the home such as: mobile handsets, set-top boxes, and home gateways. With one trillion devices expected to be in existence in the next 15-20 years this is growing issue for service providers. In solving device-based management issues service providers will not only reduce support and delivery costs and provide better customer experience, but will also add new service revenues.
