(NASDAQ:GILTF), has reported that PageNet, one of the largest paging operators in the US, has chosen an enhanced version of Skystar Advantage to facilitate the communication of Narrowband
Personal Communication Services (NPCS), commonly called "two-way paging."
The communication systems in the greatest demand by consumers are cellular telephone and
personal communication services (PCS).
Leonard Roberts, president, said what's driven that growth and what will drive it in the future is telecommunications products and services such as cellular, pagers, and
personal communication services.
If you took, say, television, computers, telephones, pagers, fax machines, printers, copiers, voice mail, e-mail, video-mail (which is coming soon), radio, CD-roms, cellular phones,
personal communication services, groupware, the Internet, and the World Wide Web and figured out which combinations to form to create new products, you'd have some products that already exist - a fax that is also a printer and a copier, for example - but you could come up with at least 20 or 30 variations that aren't yet available - but will be.
Even many of the new
personal communication services (PCS) phones have a fall back to AMPS mode built in.
Rapid developments in fiber optic technology and the growth of
personal communication services present local governments with opportunities and challenges concerning the use of public rights-of-way.
Most of these firms are expected to offer handsets for
personal communication services. Motorola enjoys an aura as a pioneer in pagers, cellular phones, PCS, and as an aggressive firm with its recent expansion in the Japanese market.
He is investing millions in two experimental types of technology, which may allow him to compete with the telephone company in providing
personal communication services. But cable television is his foundation.
This will enable Movilnet to launch new
personal communication services such as high-speed instant messaging, wireless web browsing and e-mail.
The CIRI-controlled partnership holds licenses to provide
personal communication services in Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, Miami, Phoenix, Seattle, Tulsa and Washington, D.C.
Ericsson said in a statement this would allow BellSouth to introduce
Personal Communication Services (PCS) in Ecuador.
