Wireless-Gear Vendors Wait For Their Call
An analyst for S&P is writing in Business Week that times are tough for anyone providing technology for 3G networks, and it doesn't look like it's going to get any better in the near future. They think that things will eventually pick up, but it doesn't look to be anytime soon. This is a pretty standard cop-out prediction. Say things will get better at some point in the semi-distant future so that people are mildly optimistic, but tell them it won't be for a while, so they don't remember whether or not you were right in your predictions later on.
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
