FYI, my latest column is a synopsis of insights I gleaned from attending the "Austin Mobility Roundtable" and SXSW "Wireless Future" conferences in Austin, Texas over the last few days. I also offer a cautionary note for wireless carrier executives heading to the CTIA show in Atlanta.
At first blush, anyone who might read this article could conclude that the future for wireless data applications are tenuous at best. In contrast, I look at this assessment and actually see vast opportunity -- especially the opportunity to place Austin at the center of a "beyond wireless access" movement, and as a pioneer thought-leader in the evolving "enterprise wireless data applications" arena.
I'm in the process of writing a column for Wireless Review magazine, on this very topic. More details to follow.
