Re: Countdown to the first commercialI certainly hope not, but it might. No one knows yet what 5G will really be. But some researchers do worry that 5G will become a vendor "pissing contest" all too soon and before research has had a chance to run its course.
Countdown to the first commercialI wonder if 5G will become as much a misleading marketing phenomenon as 4G became, in which case we are probably only a year or so away from the first commercial in which a wireless carrier claim its network is "5G-ready."
Also, it is funny to think that LTE does not stand for LONG TERM evolution :)
Long term is what nowdays? 6 months?
