Initiatives of vendors and operators –WAP and GPRS- have been flopping one after another and mobile data is losing its credibility by the day in a series of disappointments and postponements. Yes, very much Eurocentric view. I don't know if you had followed me and Jay discussions on the next abracadabra in 'The Financial Collapse of 2001' Thread. I am going to post there my view of a coming abracadabra as related to the replacement of wireless as we know it today. Even Hong Kong Li Ka Shing (Hutchison Whampoa) is going to get burned with 3G. It can even be that the US not following the Euro scene of 3G may end up on top. But that's not assured. To be honest with you nothing is assured now.

I find of all these hindsight articles extremely funny. There is no track record yet for the use of the equipment and services they are citing. When the services finally take off, probably in 2005, then we can re-visit all of your posts. Also, many types of 3G equipment still is not ready to be deployed, and with the current telecom depression, will take much longer than anticipated. you, carranza, obviously have absolutely no idea what it takes to manufacture this type of equipment or implement the services, technical know-how, and sales to make a profit from it. It's called YEARS.
