BW-Jan. 22, 2001- Fierce Battle Brewing Between Nokia/Cisco and Ericsson/Juniper for Leadership Positions in Third-Generation Networking and Mobile Internet Markets Technology Business Research is pleased to announce it has started coverage of Nokia (Nasdaq: NOK) and Ericsson (Nasdaq: ERICY) as part of its Network Business Quarterly subscription service. NBQ provides company-based research reports on the leading networking and communications equipment manufacturers, as well as other high-tech firms impacting the industry. Each quarterly report provides analysis of the company's strengths and weaknesses, strategic objectives and functional strategies from a combined business, financial and technical perspective. "Nokia's key competitive advantage is its ability to segment its market and align value and price to each type of customer in the mobile phone market," stated TBR Director of Network Business Quarterly Bill Lesieur. "Nokia is also gaining momentum in third-generation network infrastructure sales, and continues to strengthen its relationship with Cisco. TBR believes a Nokia/Cisco combination has a good chance of challenging Ericsson's top position in wireless infrastructures. Ericsson and Nokia both realize the importance of maintaining a top leadership role in the broader mobile Internet market, which includes IP routers, content networking, Web phones and Internet appliances. As a result, Ericsson's third-generation market strategy is critically dependent on the level of success of its joint venture with Juniper (Nasdaq: JNPR) to create IP routers for exclusive use in Ericsson's third-generation solutions."
