Going truly mobile courtesy of VoWLAN devices
First it was wireless wide area networks, then Voice over Internet Protocol, and now, not surprisingly, VoWLAN has arrived. The technology is sure to be embraced by those seeking true mobility in and out of the office network. The dual-mode cellular/WiFi system provides extreme flexibility in terms of remaining connected everywhere and anywhere and lower telco costs to boot. Research studies predict that VoWLAN phones will hit 17 million by 2009--not a huge number when compared to today's cell phone numbers (700 million last year alone), but then again VoWLAN has only been around a few years. Like most new technologies, VoWLAN devices aren't cheap--they still hover in the $500-$700 range--but that will drop as improved technologies and greater adoption takes place.
