    Carl Yankowski Criticizes Hype on 3G Wireless ProtocolPosted By: Jon Zaring on Tuesday, February 27, 2001 9:33:49 AM
Palm CEO Carl Yankowski indicated, to the Massachusetts Software and Internet Council, that the new 3G wireless protocol is not necessary for a good internet and e-mail experience. He feels that 3G is like high-definition television where a few customers want it and it costs millions to implement. Currently, wireless systems can upgrade their 14.4K connection to up to 250K without much cost impact, but reworking the network for 3G will cost billions (reference: The Boston Globe)
