BitWave was formed in 2004 to solve a complex problem facing cell phone manufacturers: how to obtain anytime, anywhere connectivity without sacrificing cost, performance or power consumption. Since its inception, BitWave has been dedicated to the development of a universal programmable transceiver, the Softransceiver RFIC to meet this industry problem. The patent pending technology embodied in the product is unique and will allow wireless carriers and cell phone manufacturers to deploy more services and devices in less time with additional functionality. Beyond the predicted one billion handset per year market in 2007, the firm's product will also be key to such markets as micro-infrastructure, laptops, PDAs, multimedia players and portable consumer electronic devices.
