Why The Crunchpad Didn't Pencil Out - Forbes.com

service-subsidized devices already exist - examples include iPod and SONY PS3. And he is right about the mobile phone handset pricing - except that, in Japan, that kind of pricing was recently discouraged. We already see 1 cent or free netbooks that come with multi-year ISP contract at least in Japan. We also see, in the US, DSL modems given away with multi-year service contracts.

Verizon, AT&T: Net neutrality not OK for wireless | Signal Strength - CNET News

Perhaps non-discrimination and disclosure are to be added. Disclosure is a good idea I think.

Wireless market is characterized by dynamic competition in terms of technology but it seems that there is not much dynamic competition in terms of companies.

With the deployment of WiMax ongoing and LTE coming, I think it is not a bad idea to start discussing the net neutrality regulation, rather than leaving it in uncertainty.

Music Industry Lures ‘Casual’ Pirates to Legal Sites - NYTimes.com

I think what they are saying is just part of a picture. Another very important piece is how much are those casual convenience pirates are willing to pay, and how much it will ultimately be when aggregated.

That, in my opinion, is a very important piece of puzzle.
