I've never been to a NASCAR event...but it looks like a blast. I've had the fun of once again seeing wireless WIDE AREA broadband at, of all places, the planning for an upcoming event this weekend. It is clear that mobile broadband is inevitable - not WiFi, but wide area broadband. Ideally using 1XEV-DO...although there are some other great technologies that have been developed and may work well too...just too early to tell for certain. EVDO is being used by SK Telecom and KTFreetel in a big way, and as it says in the most recent Fortune magazine article, "For there is no more convincing sign of a technology's impending arrival than a naked woman writhing on a color screen". I missed that one. Porn, driving technology, once again.

On a totally unrelated subject, mobile blogging has got to get easier than standing in line at Southwest...even when you are in the front of the B line. Won't the folks at Nuance and Speechworks PLEASE get together with the camera phone people so that I can just talk into the phone and snap a photo and automatically post it to the blog site?? How hard will that be? In the meantime, it's just this difficult...and with my 1XRTT card I'm still typing during the boarding...
