Lowell McAdam, Verizon Wireless president and chief executive officer, has called it “a transformation point in the 20-year history of mass market wireless devices.”
Well, we’ll see. This statement sounds too serious.
What Verizon Wireless has announced, indeed, is that they will open their network to any device and application which meets a “minimum technical standard” by the end of 2008.
OK. This means that Verizon would accept to become a bitpipe by the end of 2008. But we need to read the small print that describes that “mininum technical standard”. This will come in “early 2008″. Then, we’ll see how much Verizon does open the door.
