The bottom line? 

Just as MP3 files and digital music distribution has changed the market place for the recording industry, so to decentralised digital mobile communications is on the verge of similarly disrupting the mobile telecommunications industry, by similarly adding value to the everyday experience of many people.

Only time will tell.

As my alma mater IBM proved long ago a much older wiser safer open door policy ... strategy exists .. but building information infrastructure backbones means long delay due to FUD
