Jay, thanks for the links: <...Rees-Mogg and Davidson's most recent volume, "The Sovereign Individual," explores the many ways modern electronic communications are changing the relationship between the individual and the state. The authors term the transition from industrial to information-based society as the "fourth stage of human society" and see it as the most significant economic and political development in centuries. >

Well, he's on the right track, but he should say "...the most significant economic and political development since DNA first climbed out of the trees and walked on two legs". Being British, I think he would understate the situation like that. But really, It is actually the most significant economic, technological and political development since DNA first started coiling up on itself.

I have priced in the missing WTC and a lot more missing besides. <You did not price in WTC disappearing in 190 minutes. And, just maybe 1.odd billion folks are not interested in cellphones at all.> Cellphones are just the tip of the iceberg. They are just the temporary carrier of painfully slow wireless access to cyberspace.

CDMA and CDNA will be what is left when the industrial revolution has been left behind and the Taleban are just a distant memory.
