Monty Johnson, CEO of Wireless Telecom Group, Inc., stated, "We announced our 3G communications tester for the after-market handset repair segment, the Willtek 2201, officially last month. Demand for this new instrument, like our PIM tester launched earlier this year, has been strong. Close collaboration with and early approval for use by leading handset manufacturers have been positive factors, leading to orders throughout the third quarter.
Johnson continued, "Our customers and their customers are under pressure in this current financial uncertainty. Though we are encouraged by the initial response to our new products, we anticipate that we will experience delays by customers making major purchase decisions. We are taking this into account in our cost management planning. We do believe that our financial strength positions us well to address our largest customers' needs during these challenging times. As a result, we are optimistic that we will exit this downturn in an improved competitive position and as stronger partners with our major customers."
