At CONNECTIONS 2009, Jaime Fink of 2Wire Challenges Broadband Service Providers to Go Beyond Bundled Services to Succeed

PALO ALTO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 06/01/09 --

What: Speaking at CONNECTIONS(TM): The Digital Living Conference and Showcase, Jaime Fink, vice president of technology and strategy at 2Wire, will discuss the coming revolution in managed services for the digital home.

The traditional role of the broadband service provider is rapidly expanding -- managed services and IP video are just the beginning. As new networking standards enable unprecedented interoperability between consumer electronics devices, service providers are ideally positioned to integrate and manage this digital experience for their subscribers. This convergence ushers in entirely new service provider business models and revenue streams.

Jaime will explain why next generation gateways are the key to leveraging the full potential of the digital home. This new generation of products will not only unify the experience of a broad range of consumer devices, it will also eliminate one in particular -- the set top box.

When: Wednesday, June 3, 2009 at 1:30 PM PDT

Where: Santa Clara Convention Center, in Santa Clara, CA

Jaime Fink is available to discuss these trends and issues with members of the media. To schedule an interview, please contact Christy Seto at (415) 975-2276.
