I'll qualify that by adding "or practical".

Also, 3G payment plans don't *have* to be per minute, and I'm betting that in the US we'll see more flat-rate plans of that sort before we see a recovery of the ubiquitous wifi effort. Note that Earthlink and other providers have been scrapping their grandiose plans.

Don't get me wrong: I'd really like to be as optimistic today as I was even weeks ago. But I'm presently very discouraged.
