Gilder Says 3G Trumps Wi-Fi06/22/2004 04:02 PM If being wrong about the value of fiber-optic cable wasn't bad enough,
Gilder predicts Wi-Fi will be killed by 3G: Gilder's latest
predictions have proven right in the short term, it turns out,
according to Forbes, which notes that a service tracking his model
portfolio has had high returns. (Let's remember that great phrase,
though, which is that historical returns don't predict future
performance.) Watch the sketchy video linked from the article--shot
outdoors with little editing, so it doesn't do him justice, honestly.
I've never agreed with parts of what he's said more. Gilder
specifically says that 1xEvDO will kill Wi-Fi, which can't be the case
because 1xEvDO is too asymmetrical: it has a typical upload speed of
50 kilobits per second (Kbps) and download speeds of 200 to 400 Kbps
on average. Compare this with the service being rolled out across the
downtown in Salem, Massachusettes, which is deploying three 6 Mbps
downstream, 1 Mbps upstream ADSL connections as part of SalemOpen.net
for a cost of about $180 per month total. There's a lot more bandwidth
potential in the conventional wireline side using plain copper. Gilder
has a lot to say that's correct, which is that other countries--he
especially notes Korea--have massively more bandwidth available to
homes and businesses in the wireline and wireless markets. This is due
to something he doesn't mention: cost. South Korean and Japanese firms
particularly have managed to roll out extremely high-speed DSL and
cell services often at the same price we pay for tiny pipes in the
U.S. I'm still not entirely sure how they pull this off. Regulation,
as he points out, might be one issue, but it's also the market
climate: a lot of money was spent by U.S. companies pursuing Gilder's
last vision, and thus the resources that could have been devoted to
pursuing inexpensive DSL were spent in overbuilding competing
fiber-optic networks and in messy acquisitions at fraudulent
valuations. Gilder's observations on the Wi-Fi side show that as a
holder of Qualcomm's stock, he's not looking closely at the current
generation of Wi-Fi and related wireless deployments. He notes in the
video for this story, that there is "small coverage and not all that
much bandwidth [in] the average Wi-Fi hotspot." As noted above, DSL
service has become cheap enough to offer enormous increases in speed,
and a number of cities are deploying partial or complete Wi-Fi service
using...
Internet Trumps DNA For Innovation
Internet Trumps DNA For Innovation09/10/2004 02:30 PM theodp writes
"Senior-level business executives responding to a BusinessWeek
Innovation Survey have named the personal computer (56%) and the
Internet (51%) as the greatest innovations of the past
75 years, trumping the discovery of DNA (49%), the polio vaccine
(25%), and cloning (2%). When it comes to the most innovative CEOs,
execs give the nod to Bill Gates (50%) and Steve Jobs (47%), although
Apple (35%) bested Microsoft (32%) when it came to the most innovative
company." This doesn't seem that surprising. If you look at what
has impacted the people who filled out the survey, of course it's
going to be the stuff they see on their desk every day.

pain drug I had been on in 27 years," says the 47-year-old Manhattan

in muscles and joints. Patients like Rubinstein are left to decide if
the risk of heart disease is enough to stop them from taking
painkillers.
