Phones

His second argument is a false restriction of users options to only two: mobile phones and wired landline phones. I would have had to agree if this restriction was accurate and users would have to have both wireless phones and landline phones. However, there is a new class of UMA hybrid phones that will allow users to keep their beloved mobile phones as their only phone, while also allowing them to take advantage of commodity VoIP services using WIFI. When this class of device arrives, users will begin to drastically reduce their usage of expensive wireless minutes in favor of commodity WIFI minutes when and where WIFI is available. Even if convenient WIFI access is only available in users homes and possibly at their offices, that is still the largest chunk of phone use scenarios that the average mobile phone user experiences.
