Lars To be the official wireless sponsor of the Winter Olympics costs a lot of time, money and effort. In return the sponsor does get certain benefits. I do not know exactly what they are. However I suspect that with Samsung contributing 2,000 pieces of equipment, certain officials, VIP's, security personel and media personel will have the opportunity to use the latest and greatest in wireless. I don't think Joe Sixpack will be included and I don't think theolympic organization will be passing out NOK's or other dated equipment.

Well it is an important showcase. It shows to everyone that Koreans chose an incompatible betamax system.

I wonder if someone smart will install a limited coverage GSM system in and around the sports venues. Like the Spanish did in Atlanta Olympics so that the civilized people (i.e. Europeans) were able to use their phones.
