Whats the opportunity for operators
Standardization Opportunity to unify solutions across multiple vendors Greater penetration and roll out of consistent quality services
Innovation Ability to try out services without having bespoke terminals built
Differentiate Operators can develop unique proposition without impacting the
manufacturers production process greatly
Manageability
Operators need better means of managing terminals to deliverquality service differentiation

Why S60? Problems with current approach.
Current Status Operators can influence
minimal parts of the core
requirements for terminals
Majority of requirements aretweaks
New services are difficult todeliver
Most are point solutions
