"The carrier community has fully recovered its confidence and is investing in OSSes at nearly the same rate that consumers and businesses are picking up new wireline and wireless services," says Insight president Robert Rosenberg. "Our research suggests that terrific growth is ahead for those OSSes needed to support 3G wireless services. RF planning and engineering tools and the professional service need to support them, carriertocarrier billing and service provisioning tools, as well as customeraccessible service management systems all appear to be growth areas in the months ahead," concluded Rosenberg.
