Video Surveillance and WiMAX- a great marriage or not meant for each other? Four companies weigh in!
In the past couple of weeks I've interviewed executives at Cradle Technologies (Suhas Patil), Videonetics (Basant Khaitan) and Proxim (Robb Henshaw) regarding their companies use of broadband wireless technologies for video surveillance. I also am in the process of scheduling an interview with a SPRINT customer to learn how they're deploying video surveillance over SPRINT's 3G/4G network Suhas would love mobile WiMAX to be available in India, where his company currently sells its products- a networked video server with client VPN software to access it. He sees tremendous demand from store owners, bank branches, factory floor, and shopping mall security managers who would like to keep tabs on operations while on the go.

Comment on Finding a Creative Spectrum Solution by Brett Glass
Congratulations to the Broadband Plan team for recognizing one of the biggest problems facing broadband providers today: the staggering inefficiency of sending unicast video streams, on demand, to everyone who wants to watch online video. No matter how great our technological innovations, the fundamental laws of physics and information theory -- Shannon's Law in particular -- dictate that there is insufficient spectrum between DC and daylight to accommodate a dense city (such as New York) of prime time viewers each receiving an individual HD video stream. As actor James "Scotty" Doohan put it, in his wonderful Scottish brogue, "Ya canna change the laws of physics, Captain." If we're all to get video on our mobile devices or via our broadband connections, broadcasting, multicasting, and caching are the only possible solution

Mobile Broadband in Sweden – Still Growing
Last year, I wrote about the explosive growth of mobile broadband in Sweden . According to the National Post and Telecom Agency (PTS) , which publishes an annual report on the state of the Swedish Telecommunications Market, the number of mobile subscriptions via data plug-in cards or USB modems increased from 92,000 to 376,000 (a growth rate of around 309%) during 2007.

Is Mobile Broadband Profitable?
The consensus opinion is certainly that mobile broadband is not a profitable business (yet) in Western Europe (especially in countries like UK) where mobile broadband prices are trending lower than fixed broadband prices . I have always wanted to do a quantitative analysis. The analyst firm Informa claims that fixed-line costs in Europe are near Eurocent 0.1-0.5 per MB, compared with Eurocent 2-3 for mobile networks. We can use this number to compare the cost basis for various operators’ quota-based mobile broadband packages.

Interesting Report on Mobile Broadband Pricing in Europe
Tariff Consultancy has released an interesting new report on Mobile Broadband Pricing – an analysis of current mobile broadband pricing in 33 countries across Eastern and Western Europe. There are some interesting, yet not completely surprising, findings from the report: The average flat rate package bundle provided has doubled over the last 12 months to almost 4GB (based on the analysis of 100 mobile operators). The most common monthly user allowance price point on offer across Europe is now 5GB and 10GB, closely followed by 1GB and 500MB allowances. Pricing in 2008 has fallen by an average of 4% across all countries when compared with the previous year – even though average user allowances have more than doubled. In some countries, mobile broadband pricing has fallen even steeper – as much as 53%, 43% and 35% in Latvia, Austria and the UK respectively over the past year
