Successful Demo of Wireless Delivery Shown to Investors and Analysts At National Investment Bankers Association Conference
ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Feb. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Kanakaris Wireless (OTC Bulletin Board: KKRS) today became the first Internet Service Provider to offer business clients the ability to create wireless versions of their web sites with a combination of CinemaWEAR technology and a private network backbone. Kanakaris proprietary enablement technologies were successfully demonstrated live on a Sony laptop, literally "with no strings attached," to an enthusiastic reception at the NIBA Conference in Washington, DC, which concluded Saturday.
Friedman, Billings, Ramsey & Co., Arlington VA, stated in January 2001, "We believe the utility value derived from the widespread adoption of wireless technologies will exceed that of the Internet, or any prior technology platform." (Report titled "Wireless, Anywhere You Want To Be").
"The Kanakaris Wireless platform, which is available immediately and is targeted to leading businesses which conduct e-commerce and promote market awareness over the Internet, is in response to the structural and fundamental aspects of the wireless business. It allows the expansion of corporate networks and IT infrastructures to create dynamic, flexible trading relationships with partners, suppliers, and customers," said CEO Alex Kanakaris.
"These extended networks, which Kanakaris will help any business develop, are rapidly becoming the underlying infrastructure for global e-commerce, which IDC estimates will grow from $60.4 million in 1998 to nearly $4 trillion by 2005," he added.
"The delivery of feature film entertainment to PocketPCs, a Kanakaris Wireless first, was just the beginning. Wireless devices of many shapes and sizes are on the horizon. Through continuing to support the expansion of wireless communication technologies, Kanakaris Wireless remains positioned as an innovator in the area of emerging e-Commerce technologies," said Chief Technology Officer Robert Wood.
In a B to B form, CinemaWEAR is an array of enterprise level managed services ranging from high quality media encoding, hosting and delivery to embedded electronic commerce functionality.
