After all, this is the military we're talking about. The only people clamoring for this kind of wireless capacity are wireless firms and their stockholders. The rest of us couldn't care less. We might not mind getting some text information on our wireless devices such as stock prices or weather alerts, but generally speaking the thing we like to use our cell phones for is phone calls. Because that's what they're good at.
Computers are good at surfing the Web.
Cellular phones are good at placing phone calls. There's nothing wrong with that fact. If cellular phone providers can't make a profit from phone service, then they have my sympathies. But that's about it. I see no reason to give them any more of a frequency noose with which to hang themselves.
