Event Description:
The age of pervasive Internet is upon us. With Sprint's launch of
Xohm, not to mention exisiting 3G HSPA and EV-DO networks and
upcoming LTE networks, there are increasing options for mobile
connectivity. Price per megabyte is dropping fast as the result of
better technology, and increased competition, and we've seen the
first example of CE with bundled broadband in the Amazon Kindle.
But what are the opportunities that this pervasive broadband open up?
Laptops, MIDs, and other CE will be constantly connected, most likely
with location-aware data plans. The Telecom Council believes that
these target devices have been largely overlooked, as companies are
focused on the more familiar scenario of phone handsets. But although
they share an OS, mobile connected laptops are NOT the same as PCs.
We've seen web companies morph into mobile with handset strategies,
but what shape will their mobile laptop strategies take? Landing
pages? Redirects with LBS portals? Location-enabled banner ads? Some
kind of gaming? "Dialer" software that tells a user how much usage
they have, real time costs, etc? How does Web 2.0 and cloud computing
figure into erratic wireless networks? Let's run these ideas up the
flag post, and see who salutes.
Our meetings will feature a concrete discussion of the wireless
technologies and the devices that will carry the experience to the
consumers of 2009-2010 with our panel of experts and important
companies in this sector. But we'll also move on to the fertile
discussion areas of pricing models, and then services and
applications for this new breed of "terminal". To paraphrase Pulp
Fiction: "Does a person in a train or coffee shop on a laptop look
like a PC user sitting at their desk?… So why you wanna treat `em
that way?
For this meeting, we'll hear from companies leading this sector and
from the innovators that will revolutionize the way people use
wireless and mobile broadband. As always expect some demos!
To keep this meeting interactive, our capacity is limited to 50
people. We encourage you to register early if you have a lot to
contribute to or draw from this discussion. This event is free for
Telecom Council members, and open to non-members for $200.
