From 2001-2006, the Wireless RERC conducted its first Survey of User Needs (SUN). About 1200 people responded to this survey, and about 2/3 joined our Consumer Advisory Network (CAN) to take part in product testing, focus groups, and other research in wireless technology. In April of 2007, the Wireless RERC revised the SUN and again began collecting data.

In just 10 months, both the SUN and CAN already reached the number of responses achieved from 2001-2006. This is great news as this data helps our wireless industry partners in serving customers both with and without disabilities.

The preliminary survey results are available here.
