Mobile Will Trump Fixed Broadband Internet

No doubt we will see a revolution to wireless for autos, handsets, etc. But this technology will never completely displace a "wired" concept, especially if that concept is FTTP. Reliability and speed for massive file distribution will require fiber. Speed capabilities from fiber are nearly an endless possibility. Light is composed of a spectrum of colors and using this principle along with other advancements, fiber will be able to provide the bandwidth needed in a society that has a need to transport massive files in micro seconds. If you have kept up with the latest trends in data transport both for consumers and businesses, if you are able to grasp the desire indeed the need for larger and larger file applications, you already know that our need for speed will continue to grow... and grow quickly.

Wireless solutions have come a long way, and they will continue to expand, but we will always have a need for more speed as innovations develop in areas we can't even comprehend at this time. Your article is useful and truthful on some levels, but to suggest (as you title does) that wireless will displace all fixed BB solutions, you are discounting the speed of light. Einstein would never forgive you.
