Literally every single sliver of technology that makes the iPhone a smartphone instead of a stupidphone - internet, GPS, touchscreen, battery, hard drive, voice recognition - was developed by researchers on the government payroll.
I do like the iPhone. I've been a Blackberry person from, like, literally day one of Blackberry, so it's been a real switch, but it's a great device.
The idea that, you know - when I was growing up - that everybody would carry around a portable communicating device, that was science fiction when I was a kid.
When I look into the Ericsson's mobility report that has predictions till 2018, the majority of people having mobile broadband by 2018 will be on 3G.
People think about the world of TV and the world of online video as being different ways to distribute video. But what happens when every TV is connected to wi-fi with a browser?
If you grew up, and you never had a computer, and you've never used the Internet, and someone asked you if you wanted to buy a data plan, your response would be 'What's a data plan, and why would I want to use this?'
The advent of cellphones may, in the end, be no more relevant than the ability of laptops to change our written documents into ones using cool new fonts.
5G is no longer just a buzzword.
I hardly use a computer anymore because I have everything on my phone.
In terms of the technology I use the most, it's probably a tie between my Blackberry and my MacBook Pro laptop. That's how I communicate with the rest of the world and how I handle all the business I have to handle.
We think wireless is going to grow tremendously. Do I think people are going to watch an episode of 'Survivor' on a 2-inch television set? I doubt it. But I do think somebody's going to go to a grocery store in the middle of a football game and watch that game.
One thing that I can tell you that we have not done very well is to build in broadcast capability into the network, and we don't take advantage of broadcast radio.
It's free of hip dialing. You can have some pretty confidential conversations and not get overheard by the camera man by talking into this flip phone.
I'm the Wi-Fi, so I get everybody connected. I'm trying to let the whole world know that I can keep it connected if you get with me, you know what I'm saying?
Cellular was the forerunner to true wireless communications.
Like everybody else, criminals of all stripes increasingly rely on wireless communications, hand-held devices, and the Internet.
Given a choice, people will demand the freedom to communicate wherever they are, unfettered by the infamous copper wire.
I think, with Wi-Fi, we'll make L.A. a better place for our constituents.
I have a cellphone, but I have no Google, I have no gaggle.
My ambition with connectivity is not to fly balloons in the national airspace of other countries, but my dream is to be able to enable the local entrepreneurs to have low-cost connectivity solutions.
You really can't function without a phone or an iPad.
It doesn't matter if it's a wireless or wired network. I think network management can be introduced that is equally sensible.
It was a no-brainer that the cellular route would be a great success in Africa.
I've never owned a cell phone and don't plan on ever having one. If anyone needs to talk to me, they know where I live.
I like my phone. My phone makes magic happen.
