Wireless service providers and vendors are joining together in several states, primarily in the Southeast, to form wireless associations. Alabama, Georgia and Tennessee already have such organizations. The latest state with a wireless association is Florida. The Florida Wireless Association, with 35 members, is scheduled to hold its first meeting today in Boca Raton.

Wireless associations are also being formed in North Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana and Mississippi. Article
