Because of the lack of interoperability, we can lose billions of dollars in productivity,

Our plan is that sometime early next year, we will then start to put this on the Cisco overall price list.

We haven't announced pricing yet, but I think it's compelling given the alternative. It will probably be about 10 cents to the dollar when compared to replacing radios. That's a bargain.

Cisco views IP as the future for all communications systems, ... Cisco IPICS technology has the potential to deliver a platform to provide an inexpensive solution for pervasive radio interoperability that helps organizations dynamically manage the flow of all types of information.

It really starts to extend what we call the intelligent information network.

It's not even born at the federal level. It's born by every individual police department, every individual fire department of every small town, not to mention each commercial organization that would want to do something like this would have to replace all of their radios.
