Playa, Mr Smooth Sarin says basic services will be free excerpt from an article in wireless week titled Spectrum Availability Looms Over Love-fest By Peggy Albright "Arun Sarin, CEO of InfoSpace Inc., predicted that because the wireless Internet is a new medium, there will be new winners in the fight among carriers for that business. However, that does not mean wireless carriers need to fear becoming "dumb pipes" for Internet service providers. "I'm betting on the fact that carriers who play their cards well.will win, possibly at the expense of the wired Internet," he predicted. Among the advantages wireless companies will have is the complexity that roaming brings to the business, which is hard for non-industry companies to deal with, and the always-changing wireless standards, which could still thwart any company's business plans. "We haven't seen the final standard yet," he promised. He said to look for more technologies that will optimize bandwidth for 2.5 and 3G systems. Sarin also believes that while the near-term killer applications will be wireless e-mail, address books and integrated content services, these will all eventually become free to customers as transaction-based and entertainment services emerge. The latter services eventually will subsidize the entry-level products." wirelessweek.com
