M2M: Thinking Outside the Phone

At Sprint weve peeled back the onion to target customers and educate them on M2M and that Sprint does more than sell mobile phones.(transition to close on next slide)6

To that end we believe OPENNESS is the main catalyst to M2M growthOpen is key to rapidly addressing M2M market restrainers Open architecture and open development culture are effectively becoming pre-requisites for playing in the M2M space.Open makes technologies and resources more accessible to all key actors in M2M (application developers, solution providers, service providers and end users).Open enables collaboration --- promotes innovation

Second, NETWORK quality and choice is the fundamental building blockNetwork choice1xRTT, EVDO, 4G: ability to access a variety of networks is important to M2M solutions developmentmany M2M apps only require lower speedsNetwork Vision: Sprints approach to network architectureInnovative network blueprintConsolidates multiple network technologies into one seamless networkDesigned to further enhance voice quality and data speedsLocation-Based Services

And last but certainly not leastEXECUTION is the critical enablerSprint is prepared to help companies master the challenges of device activation, provisioning, billing and support. Key services include:Real-time device activation and provisioning (including bulk activation)Real-time visibility into device activity and data usageTools to proactively monitor devices for problems and/or excessive useAccess to support services (live chat, e-mail, trouble tickets, knowledge base)Network status updatesFlexible billing servicesDistribution and fulfillment services

What We Do16

M2M Evolution: Are We So Different?

History shows that User Experience Demands the Innovation of Hardware. From Visibility to Business Process & Workflow Efficiency

From Data Reporting and Logging to Event SequencingFrom Tracking and Monitoring to Business IntelligenceM2M has long been about the device, but evolution is about the app. M2M is an early stage industry and right now is still often focused on the hardware and what the hardware in the field can tell us. Like any device or computer out of the electronic industry, in the beginning, most of the early attention is paid to the hardware and the user experience is limited. As the market evolves, things change, and hardware features and capabilities increase based on the end user demands for a better experience. In the M2M space, the first step has really been about understanding three things: the device, the network connectivity, and the display of data. Now that we have that done, we can focus more on the end user and driving additional value by helping to automate their world vs. ours. 17Risk mitigation and risk managementGlobal logistics processes, forward and returnPackaging requirements, product sensitivities, and quality assurance needsWhen complexity in a process exits, theres opportunity to innovate.
