iBurst^TM

The iBurst^TM service provides continuous, high-speed connectivity for the user to their corporate services and/or the Internet. As long as the user stays within the coverage area of the base station network they will be able to maintain this connection in an always-on mode. This means they can use the connection for business or leisure purposes wherever and whenever they want. They no longer need to hold off activities until they get to a location which provides connectivity (either wired or wireless).

The iBurst system makes the use of online services much more spontaneous and wide-spread. As the breadth of services available on the Internet expands to encompass all aspects of life, many of these services only achieve their full potential when they are available as soon as the need arises. An iBurst connected user can take advantage of such services as soon as they become applicable, not have to wait till they can get connected when the service may no longer be of value.

Access to all the available online information at any time also means that the user no longer needs to plan ahead and guess at what information they may need so that they can download it to local storage for later mobile use. Similarly, data that is generated while mobile such as digital photographs can be transferred immediately to the online environment for storage or for others to access as soon as it is generated.

The end result is a user experience which is unique in the current day but must inevitably become ubiquitous for the communications age to go to the next stage. Once a user experiences the freedom that the iBurst service provides it is very hard for them to go back to an existence where the online world is not always available at their fingertips.
