Research Room says carriers should focus on Java, BREW download technologies

SYDNEY, Australia-New and established wireless players should look to Java and BREW application download technologies and the mobile gaming market as the next big area for growth, according to new research firm The Research Room.

“With Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technologies becoming embedded in many new PCs and devices, and the mobile and wireless network operators actually beginning to focus on what’s happening today and tomorrow, not five years down the track, the opportunities for growth have rarely been so good,” said Tim Sheedy, the firm’s managing director.

The firm pegged Java- and BREW-based applications, mobile gaming software, wireless local area network solutions providers, MMS content and Wi-Fi connectivity and account management software as the top areas for opportunity.
