Still Too Much Wireless Hype
from the not-looking-good dept
A NY Times article talking about a number of wireless companies pointing out that there's a lot more hype than reality at this point. Wireless companies aren't as hot, and aren't getting as much funding as they were (and continued to get even as the tech sector got flattened). Of course there are plenty of companies still working on new wireless products. Maybe if everyone stops expecting the world from them, some cool applications will get developed.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
