I see Timmy is wasting no time learning how to manipulate CTIA for his own benefit. Once
Timmy gets settled in his new position at CTIA I'm sure we will see a lot more of this
type of manipulation.

· Nextel Swiss Army Phone: Would imply Nextel is not only the carrier but the manufacture
of the phone. The average consumer would think Nextel made the "Nextel Swiss Army Phone",
when in fact Motorola is the manufacture and Nextel just slaps their label on it.

The other manufacture /vendors/carriers mention in the presser who have a close
relationship are clearly defined (i.e. · Danger Sidekick, with T-Mobile: ).

I can see the pressers next year:

"CTIA- A  Nextel Company"

CTIA-
            "How Business Gets Done- Just Like Nextel"
                                                                                -Dirty

A Wireless Holiday Wish List

November 20, 2002 WASHINGTON, D.C. – Tis the season to be wireless! For kids of every age, The Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) presents a sampling of goodies from Santa’s wireless workshop.

“The holiday season means fun and family, cool toys and memorable moments,” said Tom Wheeler, President and CEO of CTIA. “Today, there are colorful wireless devices with music, games, instant messaging and video for the kids. And, even more wireless gadgets for adults to get organized, take digital photos and even keep track of their kids.”

“This is also a season for resolutions – to get re-connected with friends and family and stay connected throughout the year,” Wheeler added. “Whether you’re a full-time mom or a corporate banker, these devices can help you get organized and save time, improve your workday efficiency so you can get home earlier, or allow you to take your mobile office wherever you want to be.”
