You're quite possibly right -- the extra bandwidth might go unnoticed and unused. I'd be willing to bet the "killer app(s)" just haven't made themselves apparent yet.
This refrain reminds of feature-phone users in 2005, before the iPhone, Android, or the mobile web in it's current form. Many people saw the appeal of smartphones, but professed they just didn't think they'd use them all that much.
- mindcrime 14y agoI'd be willing to bet the "killer app(s)" just haven't made themselves apparent yet. I'd agree with that. I'm not saying there won't ever be a need for the extra bandwidth, just agreeing that there probably isn't widespread demand for it right now. Many people saw the appeal of smartphones, but professed they just didn't think they'd use them all that much. Heh, now there's a mindset I can't understand. I was champing at the bit for what we'd now call a smartphone, in like, 2000. I desperately wanted a phone sized device with a real browser and ubiquitous wireless broadband. It sucks that it took so long for it to happen. Actually, to that point, there is where I'd appreciate more bandwidth... my 4G (or so-called 4G) wireless data connection. :-(
