Kevin Martin plays with my emotions (and totally screws over Skype) at CTIA

No, I wasn't there, but the FCC sent me a copy to read because they're such fantastic people. I routinely go back and forth on Martin. One minute I'm incensed at his hair-trigger indecency standards, the next minute impressed by how stubbornly he wants a la carte pricing, which might not be a bad idea, no matter what the industry says. Then, I'm totally floored by his insistence on open access for the 700mhz auction, possibly the smartest decision he's made in his tenure (and I suspect having to due with the influence of his old boss, ex-Commissioner Harold Furchtgott-Roth, whose book A Tough Act to Follow? should be required reading for anyone who wants to know about the FCC).

So, whenever I read or hear one of Martin's speeches, I never know how I'll feel afterwards. His CTIA remarks (delivered yesterday) are no different.

Here's an excerpt with an ending that you won't believe:

 

Although initially opposed by the industry, the Commission also worked to create a more open platform on a portion of the 700 MHz spectrum.  The Commission was determined to ensure that the fruits of wireless innovation swiftly pass into the hand of consumers.  A network that is more open to devices and applications can help foster innovation on the edges of the network.  As important, it will give consumers greater freedom to use the wireless devices and applications of their choice when they purchase service. 

 

I believe that putting these choices into the hands of consumers, rather than network operators, will spur the next phase of wireless broadband innovation - innovation that can make us more productive, keep us entertained, and improve our quality of life.

 

Ok, so you've got the big picture. Good. 

When adopting the open platform requirement in the 700 MHz band, we saw it as a rare chance to promote innovation and consumer choice while writing on a clean slate.  We targeted only one block of the spectrum.  And since I have been Chairman, I have opposed applying network neutrality obligations with mandatory unbundling or wholesale requirements to networks that would undermine investment incentives.  This careful balancing of spurring innovation and consumer choice while encouraging infrastructure investment is critical to the wireless industry's continued impressive growth.

 

 

So, what you're saying is if they already own it, they can use however they please, competition be damned. With wireline, you're right. Wholesale was a disaster. Wireless? We don't know yet...but wait, there's more...

 

And what we have observed since the adoption of our 700 MHz rules is quite outstanding.  The requirement for open access in the 700 MHz auction is leading carriers to recognize the benefits of a more open platform. 

 

In fact, in less than a year, many of you have evolved from vocal opponents to vocal proponents, embracing the open platform concept for your entire networks. 

 

Translation: Good job for seeing the writing on the wall before we had to smack you.

 

Verizon Wireless has committed to open its entire network to devices and applications of consumers' own choosing.  More and more wireless providers, including T-Mobile and Sprint through their participation in the Open Handset Alliance, and AT&T, are also embracing more openness in terms of devices and applications.  Indeed, in looking at the program for this conference, I was excited to see a number of educational sessions and panels focusing on the issue of openness.  This interest now appears to be shared across the industry.

 

So, Verizon is trying to catch up to GSM's convenience. They're...competing! But watch...after that eloquent pean to the glories of competition and the free market, Kevin is about to drop an anticompetitive, protectionist bombshell:

 

In light of the industry's embrace of a more open wireless platform, it would be premature to adopt any other requirements across the industry.  Thus, today I will circulate to my fellow commissioners an order dismissing a petition for declaratory ruling filed by Skype that would apply Carterfone requirements to existing wireless networks. 

 

 

Wait a minute! Whoa there! Because you've allowed open access on a network that hasn't been built yet, you're denying open access on the networks that already exist? What this means, is that Skype can't deploy an iPhone or BlackBerry application that lets you access your Skype account from your mobile device. It also means that someone like me, who only has wireless internet access (via a Sprint AirCard) could very well be denied the use of Skype (or Vonage, or any other VOIP service) through the connection that I pay for.

How is that premature? How is Carterfone (meaning that anything I can connect to the POTS network without breaking it is legal to connect) inapplicable to wireless networks? You're telling me that if I have an application that runs on my BlackBerry and uses the device's TCP/IP stack (an open industry standard since the 1970's, by the way) to provide me with a gateway to my VOIP-based phone number, it would be premature to tell my Wireless carrier that they have to let me use it even if it doesn't cause any harm to the network?

Oh, Kevin. You had me flipped. I was ready to start singing your praises to all who would listen...and now this? What are you doing to me? I hoped this was an April Fool's joke, but alas, my hopes were dashed. Even when you say things like this:

In conclusion, let me say that, at the Commission, our job is to provide ample spectrum for a range of wireless services and a regulatory framework that allows you - the entrepreneurs, engineers, and network operators of the world to provide lower prices, better and more innovative services, and more choice to wireless consumers. 

 

How, in the name of Guglielmo Marconi can you talk about the glories of competition and lower prices after you've slammed the door in the face of a service that lowers prices?

Please, Mr. Chairman. Quit playing games with my heart (and my phone). Pick a side.

By Annice Oakey on December 22, 2009 12:09 AM

I purchased this product as a present for myself for Christmas including the 18-55 IS kit lens. I have owned numerous P&S cameras - Casio, Canon, Nikon, etc, but decided it was finally time to upgrade to a DSLR - and at a great price. I have taken about 500 pictures so far - with flash, with manual controls, in auto mode, pretty much everything already. The Camera body - very solid build. I had read some reviews which were critical of the use of plastic over metal but I really think that the plastic is great. I'm sure a drop would damage it in some way, but the plastic feels very sturdy and has no flex in the body at all. Every compartment opens and closes tight and with some resistance, which gives a very stable feeling. The buttons all feel great to press. The shutter feels very sturdy and has great feedback when you press it. The camera body is a good size for me. I am taller than average but not giant and my hands are pretty good sized and even the smaller body on this camera (compared to the 40,50d, etc) feels fine. My only complaint is sometimes tiredness which I get in my right pinky finger from the grip on the camera. I'm sure in the coming weeks I'll work this out as I experiment with new ways of holding the camera most comfortably. Overall, the camera body is sturdy and feels very well made. Features - Wide spread. I am coming from a Canon G9 which already has a pretty full feature set, but the ultimate manual controls on XSi just lets me feel much more connected to this camera. The Auto mode seems to work fine. I'm not experienced with any bigger or fancier DSLR's, so this mode seems fine to me - autofocus, flash and everything. Manual mode allows for the ultimate control of pretty much everything. I love taking nighttime, long exposure shots and the XSi allows for up to 30seconds of exposure or a BULB function. The results are great out of the box, though I'm sure with post processing some of the graininess that results can be cleared up. Specs - The images are crystal clear with the kit lens compared to my G9. Even though they are both 12MP, the XSi at a 100% crop is so much clearer. I now don't worry about zooming in as far as I can - knowing I will be able to crop out a larger, closer image in the future if I want to. The built in flash is sufficient and has a pretty quick refresh time. I also have a Canon 220Ex which is a bit more powerful (not much though) but does have a much quicker refresh time. In burst mode on the XSi I can shoot twice as long and 1.5x as quick with the 220Ex which could really come in useful. I would invest in an external flash unit but for everyday shooting the built in one is fine. The autofocus is quick in my experience so far and is pretty accurate. It is much quciker than the G9, even in low light. Low light does slow it down a bit, but not bad at all. Kit Lens (18-55) - As I have said this is my first DSLR so I don't have much knowledge of lenses, but this one is pretty GOOD, not great. The zoom is pretty basic - less than my G9 but wider angle to begin with, which I find more useful. I will eventually invest in a probably-Canon longer range zoom but for now, this is fine to be begin on. It is a quick lens and the Image Stabilizer seems to help (haven;t tried many moving situations yet) so I can't report completely on that. I do miss the focus distances on the manual focus ring (infinity to close, etc) so it is sometimes confusing to see what distance I am focusing at. Overall, a good lens and definitely worth the kit price if you are just starting out. Battery - The battery is great. I have taken almost 600 shots on the first full charge still, many of which have been flash, and the battery is only down one notch. Obviously this will go down with time, but it seems great. Complaints:1. Body size is good but takes some getting used to. not really a complaint, but just saying it will take a while to find a completely comfortable grip. 2. Live view sucks. I love shooting through the eye piece, but in just using live view even for fun, it is bewildering and slow and bad. If you have a tripod it will be fine, but otherwise, do not buy this camera if you MUST have live view. I wanted the XSi because it did have live view, but I now realize I much prefer using the eyepiece. It is nice to know live view is there if I need it, but I cannot really see myself using it more than 1-2% of the time. 3. Battery door almost impossible to open. I don't know why - it could just be mine but I'm thinking it is the way it is designed. I have to use a pencil tip or a butter knife in additon to my finger to slide it open and out. 4. Lack of movie mode - I know, I know - its an SLR. But I have seen that Ashton Kutcher ad for Nikon with their HD movie mode, and I have to say that would be pretty cool to have on here. I have a feeling on the 500D or whatever the new Rebel is, Canon will install that. But I wish this one had it. Overall - Great beginners camera and even for a moderately experienced user. Only drawbacks are minor ones and for this price point, cannot really even be considered. I've wanted the Rebel since the 300D came out, and I now finally have one and I am in love.

I have a 3gs and a blackbery storm2 both have limitations. If I had to have one I would pick the blackberry. But the iPhone hands down is an infinetly enjoyable user experience. The blackberry platform is dated and awfully slow. The update process is ununified and arduous, for the leading smartphone in marketshare they are stingy with r&d and more intersted in releasing the same tired units in a new form factor than improving the user experience. The whole thing feels tired and archaic. However, email delivery is unsurpassed, support is top notch, everyone has a charger for it, battery life is superb, and it?? reasonably indestructible. Everyhing else could stand for major improvement. I typed this all from my iPhone. A sane person would not and could not attempt that on the storm.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

By CreditCard on May 4, 2010 9:25 PM

The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it'll do even better in those areas, but for now it's a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod's strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

Hello I just now finished going through your webblog and I'm really impressed. I actually do have a couple of questions for you though. Are you planning on doing a follow-up article on this? Will you be likely to keep bringing up-to-date as well? Also if you obtain an opportunity can you rate my personal acai pure web page in the event that you have an opportunity?

I just started going to a new dentist (my old one retired), and he offers something called sedation dentistry, which he says will let me sleep through the entire appointment while the dental work is being done. Is this really as good as it seems? Are you actually asleep the entire time, or just drowsy and relaxed? What is sedation dentistry?

Bridge. You can have the tooth removed and have a bridge placed. This is an option provided that it is not the last tooth in the arch. so there has to be a tooth in the front and the back, to allow the bridge to be placed.

I smoked for a very long time and giving up smoking ended up being literally impossible. I bought every one of the quit smoking tips yet not one thing helped me stop. Then I came across the e cigarettes. The electric cigarette utilizes a nicotine solution that is made out of nothing but nicotine. Basically no toxic chemicals at all. They have fortunetly saved my life.
