FMC is the prediction for 2007

As we get back to things after a (very) short holiday break, it’s fun to see the predictions for 2007. It seems like everywhere we turn, there’s another prediction about FMC and dual mode services.

Not all embrace UMA as the technology to drive all this convergence, which makes sense, UMA is for mobile (and integrated) operators. There will be plenty of fixed operators trying to keep in-home voice minutes on the fixed network, and to do that, they will need to launch pre-standard SIP-type services. But for mainstream operators, UMA is the technology which will deliver fixed mobile substitution as well as a way to combat all those operators with competitive offerings.
