SUN Sun Microsystems, provider of solutions to wireless, wireline and Internet players, identifies wireless as its future in India. It is focusing on developing the vertical telecom market in Asia-Pacific region and specifically in India. Wireless is going to be the second leap for India.
China has greater wireless penetration than wireline.
In India there is a huge wireless opportunity in education and banking sectors. For the entire Asia Pacific region penetration is 20 percent and 6 percent for wireline and wireless. That's the opportunity here. Cowper also ruled out any change in Sun Microsystems's investment in India and expansion plans following the slowing down of the US economy. He also said that there would be no dramatic impact of the US slowdown on the Indian companies and in other Asia-Pacific regions as the exposure of US companies in wireline and wireless firms were far low.
