    One thing I read is that the big opportunity the wireless providers see is the ability to provide high speed Internet access to homes. Today, the incumbent Internet providers have a monopoly position, or near monopoly, because of the need to run some type of wire or optical fiber under the streets or on on poles. The wireless people will be able to put a base station in a neighborhood and offer high speed Internet access to residential customers. They might have to put an antenna on the house but many customers may be able to get the signal without it.

    And, of course, those neighborhood wireless nodes will also serve smart phones.
