  3. M2M: Unlimited Opportunity / Immense Complexity “There are more machines than there are people in the world. Someday they’ll all be connected to the internet.” International Telecommunications Union “Internet of Things” Report - 2005 “Today we have an M2M Supply Chain Mess” Yankee Group

  4. M2M Success faces numerous challenges How can we optimize the payload? What regulatory certifications do I need? How can I maximize battery life? What’s the best way to configure & activate devices? What if something isn’t working? How do I protect my data? Can I have a rugged device that is also lightweight? Can I finance the hardware? Can I integrate into our legacy and ERP systems? How do I manage support? What about international coverage? How will we ship / track hardware? Can I get an affordable wireless plan? How will I handle billing? How do I manage my devices over the air?
