Why Are Vending Machines So Vital To The Mobile Industry?



Vending machines will soon be mini cell towers.

 It is being called WiFi 2.0 and Hypernet and the Japanese are about to make it take off.

Understand that this is where the mobile industry is headed. One of the investing trends I highlight in my book (How To Find Big Stocks) called "WiFi 2.0". The "holy grail" of communications is when any computing device can switch seamlessly among different frequencies so that the transmission of data (regardless of size) is never stopped.

Soon every cell phone will be able to switch seamlessly between cell towers and WiFi hotspots.

This solves a couple problems for wireless carriers:
1. how to handle to deluge of data being used on their network
2. finding new real estate to put up cell towers

You have to realize that any WiFi hot spot will be a mini cell tower now and cell phones will switch back forth (cell tower and wifi) to keep signal.

The Japanese are launching vending machines that not only offers drinks but also sends out Wi-Fi signals within a 50m radius

Tablet Buyers Use WiFi But A Bigger Stat Is Revealed


NPD Group provided a summary of tablet use and one sentence I found remarkable.

 The number of public Wi-Fi hotspots may increase by 350 percent in the next four years,

This is a great sign for HotSpot 2.0 to get adopted

Tablet users only use on WiFi

Internet Traffic To Grow 4 Fold In 4 Years

Cisco, in its fifth annual Visual Networking Index forecast, also said that the number of network-connected devices by 2015 will reach more than 15 billion, or about twice the world’s population.

Cisco says the increase in traffic from 2014 to 2015 alone will be 200 exabytes, more than the total IP traffic generated in 2010.

Some other staggering stats:

Mobile Internet traffic will increase 26x

Video traffic will increase 14x

The highlight of the article.... "Wi-Fi devices will for the first time use more bandwidth than wired devices in 2015"

"Wi-Fi will take up 46.2 percent of all IP traffic in 2015"

What companies and products will be winners/losers from this?

The Next Big Thing For Mobile Communications

The next big thing for mobile communications.

The explosion of data consuming smart phones are clogging the the cell tower traffic highway.

Wireless carriers can either put up more cell towers or buy more spectrum.

Cell towers have the NIMBY syndrome (not in my backyard). Buying spectrum only happens with infrequent government auctions and cost BILLIONS of dollars.

The two options take lots of money and time.

In the mean time wi-fi routers, otherwise known as wi-fi hotspots, are everywhere. Most consumers with a broadband connection have one and almost every airport, hotel, mall, stadium, coffee shop has one too.

When a wi-fi router is added to a broadband Internet connection, it becomes a wireless broadband “cell tower”.

In your town chances are there are more wi-fi routers on one block than Not only are there more of these “cell towers” but their speeds are much faster.

Why not utilize these existing high speed mini “cell towers”?

The easiest and most cost effective solution for wireless carriers to solve this upcoming bandwidth bottleneck is to enable a cellphone on their network to seamless switch to a wi-fi network when the signal is too weak or it becomes cost effective. Most cell phones are equipped with the necessary hardware to do this, the only thing missing is the software.

We found the company that has this patented solution and has already demonstrated this solution to numerous carriers.

They are currently in licensing talks with one major carrier.

Want to know the name of this company?

WiFi Hotspots...Being Phased Out Like Telephone Booths?


The demise of WiFi hotspots is another disruptive event with many winners and losers.

Ericsson marketing officer is predicting the demise of hotspots

As mobile broadband takes off, Wi-Fi hotspots will become as irrelevant as telephone booths, Ericsson Chief Marketing Officer Johan Bergendahlphone booth said Monday.

Mobile broadband is growing faster than mobile or fixed telephony ever did, Bergendahl said.

"Hotspots at places like Starbucks are becoming the telephone boxes of the broadband era," said Bergendahl. In Austria they are saying that mobile broadband will pass fixed broadband this year.

Is the decline in Starbucks business already reflecting this?

If WiFi hotspots are becoming outdated, what major hardware company could face a slowdown?

What company(s) provide the solutions for mobile broadband?

What retailers (other than Starbucks) rely on WiFi service as a selling tool? Hotels, restaurants etc. How much revenue will be lost if travelers no longer require broadband through the hotels?

What major internet provider for the lodging industry should be changing their business?
