This week, the Global Gaming Business Podcast features an interview with Shawn Kreloff, the CEO of Sona Mobile, one of the world's leading providers of gaming products and systems for kiosks and hand-held devices. Sona Mobile is one of the few companies that actually has a server-based gaming system up and running in a casino environment. Kreloff explains how the company developed its platform and what applications it serves. He also talks about the future of server-based gaming and why Sona spent years in R&D before introducing their products and services two years ago. He spoke with Global Gaming Business Publisher Roger Gros in San Diego in April.
