The market for Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) phones (Cellular/WLAN) is poised for rapid growth. Potential customers are already excited about the prospect of being able to switch seamlessly between their chosen mobile network and their Wireless LAN. A FMC handset allows you to use one device in the street, office and your home and substantially reduce your phone bill
The standard that drives WLAN integration into mobile phones is already defined by different global user groups including the Fixed Mobile Convergence Alliance (FMCA) and the Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA) (please see links below)
Nanoradio's unique low-power WLAN chip enables FMC handsets to use VoIP by extending the phones standby time 10 times in the WLAN standby mode. Nanoradio additionally enables fast internet connection with the lowest power consumption and best throughput for FMC phones.
The consumer electronic market for Mp3 music and digital cameras has already merged with the mobile phone! More consumer applications is expected to enter such as TV and video. The mobile phone is a true media device in every sense of the word.
