MAP Reacts to Verizon's Open Platform Announcement
Posted: Tuesday November 27, 2007
Harold Feld, Senior Vice President of the Media Access Project, issued the following statement in response to Verizon’s open platform announcement:

Without the certainty that comes from making open platforms a right, rather than a privilege at the mercy of a provider’s business plan, innovation and choice in the wireless world will continue to lag behind Europe and Asia.”
