Workshop Background |
The IWPC has held 7 previous workshops on handset packaging.
We have learned about design philosophies, manufacturing issues, integration options, materials issues, OEM/EMS/Supply Chain relationships and environmental design and manufacturing challenges.
Microsoft is playing a KEY global role in future handsets – known as Windows Mobile ™ SmartPhones. Microsoft’s vision of "Windows ™ Everywhere" combined with their willingness to enable design and manufacturing companies, worldwide, to design and develop portable wireless devices which will operate with the Microsoft Windows Mobile ™ Operating Systems and Applications is changing this industry in significant ways.
The wireless industry supply chain must understand the Microsoft vision and make appropriate technical and investment decisions. |
|
Workshop Goal |
The GOAL of this workshop is to bring the entire portable wireless industry supply chain together with the Microsoft experts who are defining the future SmartPhone to explore the needs and available technologies to support current and future Portable Mobile Wireless requirements. |
