Dublin, Nov 19, 2009 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) --
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/07d3ba/convergence_in_mul) has announced the addition of the "Convergence in Multi-Play Networks" report to their offering.
Multi-play strategies are becoming more widespread and many operators have implemented some degree of network convergence, allowing the delivery of a wide range of services over fixed or mobile networks. Recently handsets have become capable of handling multiple media and are serving as converged devices giving users access to different types of service. Technology allows the potential for increased convergence of many services and applications, but not all will prove of interest to users or of benefit to operators. A clear understanding of the possible developments and their potential applications, together with their likely impact on users is required to ensure that investment is reserved for the most profitable applications and services.
