Going mobile
We enjoy hearing about exciting new uses and applications for mobile broadband service. Fascinating trends include deployment of "fixed" applications and consumer adoption. Sprint Mobile Broadband users were once stereo-typical, laptop-carrying corporate road-warriors. Consumers are now adopting mobile broadband almost as fast. Gamers, on-line community dwellers (www.secondlife.com), students, mobile retirees and residents who do not receive cable or DSL are now customers. Their lifestyles value instant, fast connectivity from anywhere.Business uses for mobile broadband are also expanding. Mobile Broadband is now a key component of many disaster recovery and business continuity plans. The service helps businesses open new locations quicker and extends broadband connectivity into unwired places. According to ABI Research, the market for cellular machine-to-machine communications will grow to 18 million devices by 2008. Mobile Broadband mobilizes the individual and makes "machine-to-machine" communications simpler and more cost effective. Please post your unique uses for mobile broadband.
