- Is there a "one-size-fits-all" approach to reducing MTRs?
- How will lower MTRs impact the prepaid market?
- Is LRIC the most appropriate cost model to use for pricing MTRs?
- How will reduced MTRs affect the different operators in the market place?
This forum will consist of an operator and regulator insight day featuring a number of case studies from across Europe and a "trouble-shooting" focus day featuring expert led roundtable and interactive panel sessions that will enable you to discuss the key issues and challenges with the leading experts as well as your fellow attendees.

Canalys Mobility Forum EMEA 2009 - Where netbooks meet smart phones
Tue 17 November 2009
Hilton Heathrow Hotel, London, UK
Leading organisations in smart phones and netbooks will come together to capitalise on relevant analysis and focus on the dramatic growth of mobility and how it's shaking up the industry. Canalys is uniquely placed to conduct such an event with its two traditional sets of clients and cover topics such as:
- Is this the end for ‘Wintel'? Can ‘Quandroid' make inroads? This panel will explore the future of mobility and which platforms and user interfaces will dominate five years from now.
- Applications and marketplaces. What's hot and what's not and which business models will be most successful. Will Ovi work for Nokia and can operators realistically offer a workable alternative in a multi-platform environment?
- Operators - partners or competitors? PC vendors are following smart phone vendors by embracing the operator subsidy model. For every partnership success, however, conflicts appear too. Can operators sell data to corporate customers? Who owns the customer? Should vendors sign exclusive or multi-operator deals?

Standard fee Euro 650. Early bird 15% discount valid until 31st July 2009.
