I personally think carriers will tread cautiously into the data area of the buisness.The concept of mobile computing is so new that it has to prove out a commercial sucess before the big money is spent.Most new carriers such as the PCS groups are trying to get profitable on voice and welcome anything that may be revenue producing but Joe public will lead its acceptance and wide spread adaption.Its precisely thid that will allow the inexpensive and easy deployment to be ushered out first.HDR should catch on a lot quicker from a carriers perspective due to its economic feasibility and deployment neutral like status.Once the acceptance occurs then a market is created and the first in has a huge advantage.The carriers know what QUALCOMMM can do to help there bottom line as clearly history is with QUALCOMM and those who deployed it very early like Airtouch.
