connecting things is interesting  

change consumer behavior fast 

need model not based on carrier revenue sharing

mobile will competes with other more attractive investment opportunities

mobile is fundamentally flawed - channel friction and scale

Direct to consumer is an issue

flat rate data and operator charges will change.

VC cannot make money - the exists are not large enough given the risk and investment.

too few large mobile exists hold it back

innovation is good

clear business model for trade sale is acceptable

know your audience before you exploit their data
