Why couldn't we have just had The Cry-baby start in nets
Simson Garfinkel : "One of the most surprising things we learned from launching our Internet startup
was that providing wireless Internet service is really cheap. What ended up bankrupting the company were all the ancillary services we had to develop—credit card billing, technical support, the corporate Web site and the various security measures we had to put in place to prevent unauthorized use of the network by nonsubscribers. Organizations that aren’t trying to make money providing wireless Internet service can do away with all of these measures and offer the service for free.
