Until Telcos understand that every day consumers can't afford $400 dollar data overage bills for data transfer that didn't amount to a positive experience to begin with - we will be stuck in this land of marketing denial. Fixed Internet did not have mass uptake until ISPs bit down hard on their own margin to get at $29.99 a month offer - mobile Internet is suffering from the "we built and they will pay for it" mentality of the Telcos - guess what - we aren't coming until the paradigm shifts to charging us for software usage - not connectivity. Cable companies and entrepreneurs are going to make the mobile Internet happen.
