to Speak at World Gaming Conference
Alatto will be speaking at 2 panel sessions:
Session 1: Wireless Wagering
- The Shape of Wagers to Come
The wireless Internet--Web access on Palm pilots, pagers,
mobile phones and other hand-held devices is already here
today. It will become the most significant technological event
since the Internet itself took off in the 90s. Most estimates
put the number of global wireless Internet users as numerous
as people accessing the Web on PCs by 2004. Interactive gambling
has already begun the migration to wireless. With lottery
operators looking to sell tickets via a new medium and bookmakers
wanting to increase accessibility, the wireless revolution
has intersected with gambling. Sports book operators have
also been entranced by the possibilities of wireless, with
European-based bookmakers the most common mobile-enabled entrants.
Online wagering is ready-made and highly viable application
that seems a perfect fit for the wireless world. But is the
wireless world ready for online gambling? As wireless enters
the early stages of adoption, what will the technical, legal
and practical issues of the mobile world become?
Moderator: David A. Freemon, Freemon and Company. Speakers:
Dr. John Whelan, Alatto; Mr. David Lehrer, Alatto.
