I think we can all agree the current structure of the Wireless industry only really benefits the Wireless providers. End users are completely controlled by their wireless masters.
I see this trend changing. Traditional wireless providers are going to be in for a shock if they don’t open up. I’m not just talking about Google’s Wireless bid.
Since the iPhone the public is starting to realize what they have in their hands is powerful internet machines. You can get your email, post a blog or video, make Skype calls etc.
I see a future, a very near future where we all have internet tablets (yes Nokia you were right) and the Wireless providers will provide just high speed Wireless Data. There will be no long distance because your calls will all be VOIP calls. Most likely VOIP video calls. You’ll update your Facebook and and make financial transactions all on one device. The only connection you will need is your network device.
This weekend I’ll be posting a few European companies who understand the future of wireless and are building tools and services for this wide open future.
