services over mobile networks is creating unprecedented challenges for mobile
operators, application developers, smartphone suppliers,
telecommunications-equipment providers and consumers.

In this keynote address, Tellabs? Executive VP and CFO Tim Wiggins (BA Accounting

transforming its strategy, technology and business operations to enable the smart
mobile Internet.
