I find it funny that Balsillie mentioned at the BlackBerry Executive Summit Series presentation that 3G was like dynamite in that you add too much and it explodes (the bandwidth pipeline, that is). He said there is not enough carrier bandwidth available to support a massive rollout and implementation of 3G. Let's face it, the adoption rate of 3G-capable devices (UMPC, smartphones, cellular phones, laptop cards, etc.) is minimal, especially in terms of active use of the bandwidth. I tend to agree with Jim, but he gave no hints at all concerning the BlackBerry 9000 and did all he could to criticize the carriers and their bandwidth implementations. I find it amusing.
P.S. - With news like this, it tends to be posted the day it was announced (two days ago). Just continuing what penpower mentioned first...
