ICOM and Kenwood Announce Strategic Alliance

ICOM Incorporated, KENWOOD Corporation, and TRIDENT MICRO SYSTEMS announced today that they plan to form a strategic alliance to develop a new generation of digital networking systems. TRIDENT MICRO SYSTEMS is expected to join the previously announced ICOM and KENWOOD working alliance which jointly developed a common air interface for digital radio systems demonstrated at IWCE 2005. A strategic goal of this alliance will be to accommodate seamless migration from current analog systems to new digital technologies with boundary free expansion.

Further actions and details will be announced later from the alliance parties.
