The "disruptive pain" of explosive 3G/4G mobile data traffic is empowering "disruptive" solutions.

Re-envisioning the mobile infrastructure -- so as to support the proliferation of media-rich/cloud-base Mobile APPs -- is where the innovation -- and needed funding -- should and will occur next.  

As I see it, the "holy grail" for  WiFi Offload, would be in fully emulating the functionality+interoperability of celluar networks, including--

  • --auto-provisioning/authentication (AAA services),
  • --seamless bilateral 3G/4G-toWiFi Data Roaming (transparent mobile User session handoffs), 
  • --3G/4G OTT value-added services (SMS, MMS, etc.) over WiFi would be nice too
  • --(finally) tracking and remaining "tethered" to subscribers during WiFi sessions-- producing CDR (data records).

All so as to "productize"/monetize WiFi . .  

 Blu-Linx Technology www.blu-linx.com does just that:, a start-up founded by a group of sasoned 3G/4G network design and value-added services (VAS) integration engineers + "carrier-garde WiFi antenna network specialists,

-->3GPP-compliant functionality+interworking over WiFi spectrum

Let's dialogue;a remote '"live" Demo can be conducted, if you like.
