Cheap Is The Word At CeBIT
As CeBit gets under way, the focus this year appears to be on cheap wireless. No one doubts that we have a wireless future, but three years into the tech downturn, people are realizing that this might still last a bit longer - and so everyone (consumers and businesses) are looking for cheap solutions. It's no different in the wireless world. From inexpensive RFID applications to more new uses for WiFi, people are no longer interested as interested in "massive buildouts" and anything that uses the words "capital intensive".
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.
–The Techdirt Team
