Wireless is highly overated 95% of the time when it comes to internet connections.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21556708 Wed, 10 Dec 2008 00:56:54 EDT Re: Why do I feel "analysts" are almost ALWAYS clueless as hell? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21552750 knightmb :

Wireless is going to be the way to go at some point.

People don't want to be connected to coax or twisted pair.
Forever! What is their plan for the future?

Technology is always changing.
Oh thats right lets just keep using very old technology and suck as much cash outta of the customer as we can.
Agreed and that is what my company is capitalizing on. When I talk about wireless, I don't talk about Satellite, but ground based wireless. Wires and fiber are great for the infrastructure, but there is no reason wireless can't be the last mile.

Big outlandish claims are what drive headlines like the one we're reading on DSLR. If an analyst were to say cable companies should offer DOCIS 3.0 and expand their offerings to keep customers believing in the value of their subscription, then we'd all agree, yawn, and move on.

But wait! Here's a guy who thinks short-term profits are better than long-term vision. Wow! What does he have to say? Forego upgrades and keep the money - which results in fatter short-term profits and a big bonus to the analyst for being "right". And since he's got lots of money, he must know what he's talking about. Which he does, as long as you don't care about the future.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21552047 Tue, 09 Dec 2008 10:01:41 EDT Why do I feel "analysts" are almost ALWAYS clueless as hell? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21551939 kamm : I mean I knew a few, they were in the top 10 of the most ridiculously ill-educated yet highly opinionated people I've ever met. Full of cliches and I-will-say-something-else-just-for-the-sake-of-saying-something-else...

...I am sure there are real, decent ones but why they never get to speak? :)

[BQUOTE=[user=bicker]]Waaaa waaaa waaaa. You just want what you want and don't care to factor in what is right or true. Your perspectives are un-American, and deserve far more ridicule than I'm prepared to pile on them.
