NEW YORK, March 31, 2006 – Light Reading's Unstrung (www.unstrung.com), the leading online enterprise wireless publication, today integrated the content, bloggers, and readership of CMP Media's recently acquired Mobility Loop (www.mobilityloop.com).

Unstrung is pleased to welcome three new contributors as part of the integration:

These respected wireless industry veterans will be adding their views of enterprise wireless developments as regular bloggers on Unstrung, as well as taking an active part in discussions on the site's message boards.

Augmented with editorial content and columns from Mobility Loop, Unstrung focuses on key issues of enterprise wireless networking and mobility for IT professionals – living up to its tagline, "Mobilizing the Enterprise." In contrast to other wireless-industry publications, Unstrung delivers independent and original content and breaking news on a daily basis, along with regularly updated gear reviews, case studies, interviews, polls, and directories.

Unstrung's team of three full-time editors is led by Terry Sweeney, Editor in Chief. Richard Martin works as Senior Editor; Dan Jones is Site Editor. Together, they have more than 50 years' experience in technology journalism.

"The combination of Unstrung and Mobility Loop cements our position as the enterprise wireless publication with the most highly qualified readership in the industry," said Editor in Chief Sweeney. "Combined, these two dynamic publications represent a key step in taking the highly successful business-to-business publishing model established by Light Reading's publications to the next level within CMP Media."

The Unstrung brand extends to a range of additional publications, services, and events, including:

Unstrung continues to be the destination for the latest news and analysis on everything from wireless LANs to mobile applications, broadband wireless networks, RFID, and beyond. Based on previous averages, the Unstrung site now attracts 390,000 monthly page views and 102,000 unique monthly visitors. The site also features an opt-in newsletter incorporating more than 47,000 subscribers.
