Isn't that something that has been said for every dead technology. Not trying to piss on your opinion. I am just saying that we cannot ignore the freedom offered by mobile internet. It's far too big a factor to ignore.
I completely agree that political play will play a major part in shaping our telecomm future. Whether or not the politicians let the market takes it's course or intervene to guide in one direction or the other remains to be seen.
