Trev, at the prices charged by service providers, which is something like $5 per megabyte, when it costs them about 2c per megabyte, there won't be many people wanting to take a bite at that.

The running costs will kill it.

Because there'll be competition to get subscribers, the prices will come down. But I suppose it'll be a couple of years yet before anything more than still pictures are sent via cyberphones.
