In recent years, billions of dollars (and euros, yen, and other
currencies) have been spent by wireless services providers to
acquire the radio frequency spectrum needed to offer so-called
"Third Generation" (3G) mobile services. These services include
high-speed data, mobile Internet access and entertainment such as
games, music and video programs. Indeed, as voice communications
are substituted by data communications, software -rather than
terminals or networks- has become the driver of the wireless
industry. Meanwhile, services are becoming increasingly
specialized.
Why has the road to multimedia cellular been so difficult? These
benefits of the mobile Internet have come with the costs of a
massive transition that has coincided with the bust of stock
markets and the technology segments worldwide, controversial and
costly license auctions in several lead markets, dated or mistaken
regulatory policies, the clash between the early hype and the
pioneering realities of the mobile Internet. But these are
generalities that barely scratch the surface. The devil is in the
details. And it is these details that Competition for the Mobile
Internet addresses.
