Alan A. Reiter President Wireless Internet & Mobile Computing

Alan A. Reiter has been analyzing leading-edge wireless communications and computing products and technologies since 1978. He is blunt, cynical, egotistical, and no respecter of corporate theme songs, Outward Bound togetherness and wireless data marketing hype. Reiter anticipates and leverages changes in the wireless Internet market to help jump-start new businesses and create innovative solutions for existing businesses in the United States and abroad through his consulting, tutorials and publications. In mid-1996 Reiter launched the pioneering consulting firm of Wireless Internet & Mobile Computing. The firm analyzes such subjects as: Devices, wireless WAN/LAN integration, access to corporate databases, information services, finance, shopping, portals, entertainment, security and advertising to devices. Reiter established the world's first: cellular magazine, cellular conference, wireless data newsletter and wireless data conference. He also helped develop the first independent U.S. trade association for public paging and "radiotelephones," now called the Personal Communications Industry Association. Mr. Reiter's analysis has been quoted in scores of publications, including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Time, Newsweek, Business Week and Fortune. He has been interviewed on numerous TV and radio programs, including CNN, ABC, TechTV and National Public Radio. Mr. Reiter has an M.S. in Broadcasting and a B.A. in English and Writing. He also completed postgraduate courses in science, technology and foreign affairs, and in electrical engineering for telecommunications.
