Unless I'm completely misunderstanding the point of the story, they are expecting this to make no change. The idea would be: "People are going to have multi-mode phones. This makes it possible to do it for less money, more efficiently..."
Could this mean that the base station doesn't have to transmit at the same power? Dunno...
