For those who did not read the book description, this is NON TECHNICAL book. The authors (editors) talk about the creation of 3G killer application, but they are not able to really tell what that would be. During the entire book they have emphasised that no single application would be killer application, but it would be loads of small applications that will make 3G succeed.

People who read online news and articles about 3G/UMTS, will not find this book of much help as most of the things mentioned are well known. For the managers who are always on the move and want somethings to talk about with the clients (and in parties trying to impress people) this book will present necessary information.

Overall, this book has some useful stuff but i wouldnt personally recommend it to anyone. There is enough (and more updated) information on the net that could be found easily.

Unworthy at any price 23 May 2003
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
If I had written this book, and were holding myself out as a consultant to the mobile operator industry, I would not list it on my resume.

The content is unremarkable and rehashed; nothing is here that could not be learned in a few hours of online research. There are no unique insights here. Some suggested sites include: Wireless Week; Mobile Commerce World; RCR Wireless; Mobile Burn; the 3G Portal; the 3rd Generation Partnership Project; the UMTS Forum; and Unstrung.

Beyond the content, the presentation is terrible and the editing atrocious. Barely a page goes by without typographical or grammatical errors. It appears to have been rushed out to capture the "3G" hype.
