IT stands for Internet Telephony in ITEXPO, but ITEXPO is now co-located with several summits and workshops such as SmartGrid, 4G Wireless Evolution, SIP Trunking, VIPeering, M2M, Cloud Computing and more... that spell "B U S I N E S S D E V E L O P M E N T" like our company and you cannot find elsewhere.
In fact, our company's DIDX has added thousands of new wholesale telecom clients and vendors to the DIDXchange because of ITEXPO participation.
So, I thought I'd like to share with my readers what the ITEXPO East All Conference Reception Sponsor will get. First, it is scheduled February 3, 2011 in Miami Beach, Florida.
Attendees will appreciate and remember your company for a long time because of the fun and memorable evening of games, cocktails, karaoke, hors d'oeuvres, and networking!
The sponsor will receive all the leads generated by this reception.
Sponsorship Includes:
1. Pre-show email blast to ITEXPO Database promoting your sponsorship

Brough Turner, Entrepreneur and Engineer, from Dancing to Internet Access
A recent podcast of ours is more a conversation with Brough Turner and not really an interview. A full transcription is on Techistan. Brough is an engineer and entrepreneur who I met at the VON 2006 show the first time. He discusses his own history from phone hacking at MIT to morphing many times in business, making some money on the way, craigslist, wireless, 4G and 3G, one laptop per child, dancing, and his ideas for changing the way people access the Internet. Listen and/or read, whatever your preferred information receipt style at http://www.techistan.net/2010/02/05/spend-a-few-minutes-with-brough-turner/.

Share your thoughts on Mobile Myths
Go to Linkedin to take part in the conversation. BTW, we recommend* participating in some great wireless-related conferences such as 4G World, CTIA Wireless I.T. & Entertainment, and 4G Wireless Evolution, all taking place in the USA in September and October 2009.
Myths to support or debunk:
1: Users want power and aesthetics. Features are everything.
2: What we really need is a Swiss army knife.
3: Focus groups and other traditional market analysis tools are the best way to determine user needs.
4: If it works in Silicon Valley, it will work anywhere.
5: Every application on the planet will be accessible via mobile devices.
6: The industry is converging on a UI standard.
7: Highly usable systems are just around the corner.
8: One underlying operating system will dominate.
9: Mobile devices will be free-or nearly free.
10: Advanced data-oriented services are just around the corner.
11: Shrink your fingers, big buttons and screens are going away
Very interesting question added by Anthony Dubidad of Akendi company.
Come meet with us from DIDXchange at 4G Wireless Evolution and ITEXPO West, Sept. 1-3, 2009, booth 125.

Machine 2 Machine Technology at CTIA Wireless and I.T. Entertainment
I admit, I didn't know what M2M meant when I first noted that CTIA Wireless and I.T. Entertainment Conference will have a zone titled with that acronym.
Have you noticed the increasing plethora of wireless positioning technology in 3G networks? Note the mash-ups with global navigation satellite systems, "telematics are re-emerging to offer savings, efficiency, and environmentally sustainable solutions in all major industries."
So, the questions may be... how can this benefit your company and if it is worth it, how do you get started? Berg Insight analysts "estimated that from 37.5 million in 2008, wireless M2M network connections will grow at a compound annual rate of 37.9 percent during the next five years, reaching 186 million connections globally." That is no small number.
Just like in any new technology, you may currently need to buy from a variety of suppliers to put together the big picture. It is causing businesses who never thought they would ever work together to do so such "as fixed, mobile or satellite operators, short-range wireless systems (e.g. ZigBee, Bluetooth, or RFID), hardware (e.g. chips, antennas, modules, and sensors), and software applications that interface with location data and mapping technologies. But as the technology matures, some winning companies will emerge with turnkey solutions."
Gather information about "Smart Telemetry can automate interaction between your assets and your operations.
Topics to include:
•The role of SIM cards and SmartSIM in vehicle and asset management
•Mesh networks, 2G, 3G, 4G, LTE & the promise of ubiquitous connectivity
•Maintaining client privacy and security in supply chains
•Measuring return on investment in industrial technologies"
Our DIDXchange is a media partner for CTIA Wireless and I.T. Entertainment scheduled for Oct 7-9, 2009 and other conferences listed at http://www.didx.net/events.

Les Paul and the Media Server Industry
Need input on this Linkedin discussion! Carl Ford has posed this discussion question, and I know that over a 1000 on my Facebook network are in the IP communications industry are qualified to discuss plus thousands of DIDX members. Several hundred of my connections are in the music industry, too. So please login to your DIDX account and participate.
The question is ...
Besides the electric guitar, Les Paul was a the father or dubbing and overlaying voices and sounds, the impact was to create media mixing, which directly relates to what we do in telecommmunications.
Does any one have more direct ties to that history, they would like to share? Answer on Linkedin.

ITEXPO West 09 Helps Exhibitors Color Coordinate
It may seem silly for me to make a big deal out of this, but I think this is smart of ITEXPO West set for Sept 1-3, 2009 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Check out their exhibitor quick refenence at http://www.tmcnet.com/voip/conference/west-2009/exhibitor-manual/w09-exhibitor-information.htm. They state right at the top that the carpet is blue and the curtains around the booths are white and blue.
Another great best practice of ITEXPO! You can sign up to exhibit, sponsor and participate in many ways, but I would say hurry because it's filling up fast and will be bigger and more meaningful for business and technical development, more than ever.
(DIDXchange is a media partner for ITEXPO West and also an exhibitor at booth 125 where you watch live demonstrations of DIDX signups, interop testing, and ... DIDx now supporting T.38!)
We ordered blue carpet and table skirts for our booth this year. For once, we'll match! :-D

Bandwidth vs Applications on Mobile, 4GWE
I just received this interesting analysis and offer from Carl Ford via email and want to share it with you.
As communications evolve to the next generation of wireless broadband, the customer’s device selection seems to be more about bandwidth than the applications. With RIMs return to prominence as the leading smart phone, customers are choosing a device for reasons beyond simply the applications.
We can assume then, that bandwidth matters.
But this is not where the story ends. The story is evolving. With new phones coming from Google and Palm, the market is surely going to expand.
When it does, what is the case for the new versus the old, and how can a carrier
support the growth? As a leading wireless carrier, Verizon has had to face the
realities of working with device manufacturers to maintain its’ leadership role.
What decisions can carriers make to retain their existing customers in a saturated
market? What device will help retain and keep customers happy? Is this device all
about the applications, the bandwidth? How does a carrier ensure
that the network can support a device’s broadband applications and what are the business case issues to support the deployment of advanced wireless broadband devices?
At 4GWE, you will get answers to these questions and more as we investigate new applications and business models for 4G devices and services, MID device adoption, MID impact on 4G demand and more.
Register NOW, don't miss the opportunity to engage in the discussions that will help you and your company solidify your wireless strategy.
Reserve your place, and receive early bird pricing.
... browse some of our team's other blogs at http://blogs.didx.net and http://blog.tmcnet.com/monetizing-ip-communications/. Check out conferences and tradeshows we believe are "must attend" at http://www.didx.net/events. You're welcome to comment, contribute, and collaborate any time.

4G Trends' Predictions for Mobile Transactions in 2009
Seminar: 4G Trends' Predictions for Mobile Transactions in 2009
Date: March 5, 2009
Time: 11:00 AM EST
Duration: One Information Packed Hour.
COST: FREE.
Register at http://4gtrends.com/?p=113
Telebriefing Summary
The rollout of mobile transactions services throughout the world is highly dependent upon the penetration of financial services and the mobile phone throughout the world. The progress made in 2008 in conjunction with the global economic crisis will improve the availability of services but there will be no monetization of services until 2010. This webinar will highlight the challenges still to overcome (business model, distribution channel, value chain, technology, etc…) before commercial rollout and adoption of these services can begin.

Running Marathons and High-Powered WiFi, Best Friends
Michael and I were discussing the Pensacola Marathon that we are helping to measure via calibrated bicycle. The race is scheduled for Feb. 15, 2009 at 6:30 AM. One problem for races is the slow process of data entry and availability of scoring and timing and upload of photos and videos. So, I turned to Brough Turner's Next Wave Redux Internet Telephony magazine column post, NextGen WIFI and Wireless Disruption.
"Now 802.11y defines how new high-powered WiFi devices can operate in the US in the 3650-3700 MHz band (at ranges up to 5 km!)."
My husband and I immediately discuss why marathons and high-powered WiFi should be best friends, and I want to share that conversation with you.
Traditionally, scoring and timing of a marathon is done this way. Place the computer system in a van or trailer and data is entered offline. More recently, some race results are being uploaded near real time, but again the server is in the van or trailer itself, subject to damage and loss and elements in the open and on the drive to the race site.
If a race or even just some of the splits are situated within the 5Km range of the WiFI, think of the opportunities! Leverage of GPS. Real-time upload of scoring, timing, photos, videos and more. And... with something as cool and tiny as a PDA, Asus Netbook Eee or HP Mini-Note, or even a cell phone.
You're right, Brough. It's a game-changer.
