Do you know the right answer(s)? If not, how do you know if the answer is right? (Attorney's Rule #1: Never ask a question, the answer to which you don't already know.) • Is your Planning Staff having difficulty with its workload?

Limited capacity sites vis -a -vis 4G services • When? It's already started Copyright 2009 - The Center for 8 Municipal Solutions Proof of the Industry's Agenda /Goal • Cablevision Launches Mobile Portal • Excerpt from InformationWeek April 27, 2009 07:02 PM By Marin Perez • The move shows the increasing importance of the mobile space for the major cable providers, as they are facing stiff competition from one another, as well as from telecom offerings like AT&T's U -Verse and Verizon's FiOS. The holy grail of these providers is being able offer customers the "quadruple play," a bundled service of home phone, cell phone, home Internet, and cable TV. • Companies like Comcast and Time Warner have invested hundreds of millions in Clearwire and will likely resell WiMax to satisfy their users' mobile needs. This 4G technology is currently being used to provide mobile data connections, but it does have enough bandwidth to provide both voice and video services. • Cox will take a different approach to mobility, as it will offer its own cellular service with spectrum it purchased in a Federal Communications Commission auction. The cable company has indicated it will integrate mobile video services into its handsets to go along with voice services.

The holy grail of these providers is being able offer customers the "quadruple play," a bundled service of home phone, cell phone, home Internet, and cable TV. • Companies like Comcast and Time Warner have invested hundreds of millions in Clearwire and will likely resell WiMax to satisfy their users' mobile needs. This 4G technology is currently being used to provide mobile data connections, but it does have enough bandwidth to provide both voice and video services. • Cox will take a different approach to mobility, as it will offer its own cellular service with spectrum it purchased in a Federal Communications Commission auction. The cable company has indicated it will integrate mobile video services into its handsets to go along with voice services.
