Local and mostly fixed or very local and then also mobile wireless networks take care of their part of the total market, other parts of the market need other solutions. Very few seem to survive in outer space, but unlicensed 2.4Ghz, power restricted fixed wireless, with limited mobility within the dense grid of antenna boxes, will probably have a better future replacing much of the present wired local networks. Especially for universities and homes, even neighbourhoods, cheaper than drilling holes in walls and installing connectors in every probable place. But to be carried around in a pocket it must also have large, even global coverage, low battery weight and the local networks must agree to let it connect. My personal killer patent for the unlicensed bands and proprietary equipment would be some equipment for figuring why they don't work every now and then. Ilmarinen
