Welcome to Unstrung

The new Unstrung welcomes readers of Mobile Pipeline. We think you’ll find the combination of these two sites an unprecedented forum for wireless networking professionals.

Even if you've visited Unstrung before, please take a good look around. We’ve refurbished our site, making it easier to get to the content you care most about: news, analysis, reviews, and opinion. We’re redoubling our efforts to write for the enterprise IT buyers of wireless networks – how you make procurement decisions, deal with management and security issues, and work with suppliers to drive innovation.

If you’re a new or returning Unstrung reader, you can also count on us for original, high-value content that helps you grapple with particularly thorny technical issues. Whether it’s WLAN security, WiMax vs. 3G, or a choice between competing mobile application service providers, our experts and end-user case studies will help you make more informed decisions.

And, of course, Unstrung will continue its focus on original reporting on the critical, need-to-know breaking news for enterprise wireless users – including ongoing inside information on the industry, helping you track wireless-related stocks and keep current with a ticker of headlines about the public and private companies making news on a daily basis.

We have assembled the most experienced editorial team in the wireless industry. First, we are proud to announce that Terry Sweeney, who originated Storage Pipeline, is now Editor in Chief of Unstrung. Dan Jones continues as Site Editor, while Richard Martin joins us as Senior Editor. Between them, they have more than 50 years of technology journalism experience.

We're pleased to be partnering with CMP's Network Computing for product reviews and lab tests that will give you unprecedented insight and hard numbers on the latest in wireless networking gear.

Like what you see? To get the full benefit of Unstrung, we encourage you to become a registered user. This gives you full access to our message boards, newsletters, industry directories, and specially targeted Webinars.

Think we missed something? Have a hot news tip or cool case study to share with us? We welcome the feedback: Drop us a line with your thoughts and let us know what you think of the wireless industry's largest, most authoritative – and newest – Website.
