移动宽带正在起飞

The thought was the mobile Internet could become bigger than the Internet itself, since the number of mobile phones in use dwarfs the number of PCs, and handsets are personal devices that are always with you.
Mobile broadband quietly graduated to a zippy new generation of technology called High-Speed Packet Access (HSPA), which increases the data speed of mobile networks.
Mobile broadband has become probably the fastest-growing mobile service since the launch of pre-paid services and SMS text messaging.
If I weren't allergic to the term "killer application," I would say that mobile broadband actually is one. Its success has led to capacity shortages for many operators, who are now busily planning for growing demand.
The first has to do with economics: With mobile broadband often being sold at prices that match or even beat fixed broadband services such as DSL, is there a sound business case supporting the mobile camp?

一个事实:HSPA技术的出现,使得移动宽带的成本大幅降低,3G的美好未来依稀可见。

一个可能:如果移动宽带成本足够低,低到等同,甚至廉价于固定网络宽带服务,那么,移动服务提供商,是不是要转型,做 移动互联网服务提供商呢?

一个问题:最重要的问题是,移动运营商是否可以找到成本足够低的技术,使得转型移动互联网服务提供商有利可图。

10年前,电话公司看到提供互联网服务的商机,于是成为ISP互联网服务提供商,尽管这条转型之路颠簸不平。

移动世界也会发生同样的故事,坎坷亦然。
