What the new breed of customer wants!!

The big networks are very slow at assessing and adapting to the rapidly changing needs of the customer of today. What is basically required of them is to provide a big ISP service that will allow computers, PDAs, gaming consoles, and VoIP type phones to seamlessly connect, both nationally and eventually world wide.
Done properly, with sufficient bandwidth and connectivity available, using a home hub/router, this would before long replace the landline phone as we now know it.
It would mean that a device would work (almost) anywhere just as mobile phones do now but without the problems.
Revenue would be gained from a monthly subscription (a la ISPs) and a charge for using more than a bandwidth allowance.
That is my vision of the comms future.
