"As digital signage grows and is becoming prolific, and has teetering from being a 'technology push' to being a 'market pull' many new suppliers, system integrators, content producers and network operators are getting on the bandwagon. This book is a 'must read' for such companies and those seeking to leverage existing offerings, organization or infrastructure to serve or diversify into this new market." - Lyle Bunn, Principal & Strategy Architect of Bunn Co. and noted authority on the digital signage industry
