"While high-speed wireless data networks are evolving rapidly, it is PDA users, not laptop PC users, who will make these systems profitable and productive, according to mobile computing pioneer Andrew Seybold. "I want to make one thing perfectly clear: Nobody will pay for these [wireless data networks] with laptop users," said Seybold, head of mobile computing consulting company Andrew Seybold Group LLC. It will be PDA users "who will pay the freight" to keep these networks in business, he said Monday at the CTIA Wireless show here."
I am not sure I agree with this, but I'm also sure I don't have enough info to make an informed opinion on it. What do you think?
