Where is the Telecosm puck going in 2010?
So the "Telecosm" (George Gilder) puck is somewhere at the far end of the ice. The National Telecommunications and Information Association (NTIA) and the Rural Utilities Service (RUS) are in the process of creating a new vision for the American Broadband Nation. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is now taking a back seat to the NTIA and there's a new sherrif in town. Even AT&T and Verizon are concerned that the genie may be out of the bottle. It is really anyone's guess where the telecosm puck will be in 2010, but one thing for sure is that the 4G wireless networks still need to be built and connected with fiber for cellular backhaul. With iPhone users like me sucking down bandwidth with massive multimedia applications, we need more fiber to connect to more towers across the nation to offload the cellular traffic, in both metro and rural America.
