A few Disruptive Opinions.... For more, click here

  • Multiplicity is more important than convergence - multiple numbers, multiple devices, multiple identities, multiple service providers.

  • VoIPo3G will grow faster than VoWLAN, for both carriers & independent providers.

  • Mobile applications should be bearer-aware, not bearer-agnostic. This is a fatal flaw in IMS.

  • Context is more important than content.

  • There is no mobile Internet. Just The Internet. Laptops & large-screen mobile devices are critically important.

  • Almost nobody will 'have their first experience of the Internet on a mobile phone'.

  • Motion sensors in handsets will become indispensably important for users, operators and software developers.

  • Mobile operators will relax their 3G data plan terms-of-service and permit VoIP traffic

  • Metropolitan WiFi is a near-useless proposition.

  • Despite new allocations, the mobile industry will be more spectrum-constrained in the future & this will define business models.

  • Smartphones have little appeal to the 70% of global mobile users on prepay tariffs.

  • Mobile search is largely pointless.
