Hotspots Going Obsolete
by Andrew McCaskey
Ericsson would like us to believe that hotspots are going to go obsolete. OOps I thought that they were just now getting here.
I am a bit skeptical on the predictions – not being sure that Ericsson/Sony are in a position to insure the unconditional success of HSPA as a wireless broadband technology.
In the long run, though – they might be right. I expect that it will not be along the lines that they will be happy with – I expect that the next overbuild will be along similar lines that MCI and Sprint did in years gone by to traditional telcos .
Simple bypass to commercial accounts, but now with the additional capability to use Wimax to hit early adopter and prosumer accounts are going to leave both Telcos and traditional (voice ) wireless in a race to the bottom – as if it’s not already close.
