ORLANDO, Fla. and HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., March 27 /- Wireless carriers and their subscribers are in sync when it comes to what they want in a good, basic handset -- easy-to-use, reliable, affordable and with a bit of style.

(NASDAQ:UTSI), continues to deliver just that with the introduction of its new clamshell CDM7026 wireless phone and CDM7076 camera phone.
