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.

Shirky: Fame vs Fortune: Micropayments and Free Content

mental transaction cost; I am not sure if this theory can explain the wide adaption of i-mode. Did it happen because what i-mode offered was not quite the Internet?

Micropayments for news: The holy grail or just a dangerous delusion? » Nieman Journalism Lab

A good review of recent and not-so-recent remarks on this issue by some notables; I do agree that monopoly rent is hard to maintain in face of the change in the balance of power between mass media and individual creators in creating and disseminating content online.
