DUBLIN, Ireland-- June 23, 2006--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c38596) has announced the addition of Broadband Strategies for the Mobile Market to their offering.

WiMAX is emerging as a technology that can compete with mobile data networks.

Mobile WiMAX gives the wireline carriers an opportunity to enter the mobile wireless market with better performance and lower costs than the 3G technology being deployed by mobile carriers today.
