Oh my god, what a complete bush… this is! RIM‘s Lazaridis proclaims:

“Manufacturers had better start building more efficient applications and more efficient services. There is no real way to get around this,” “If we dont start conserving that bandwidth, in the next few years we are going to run into a capacity crunch. You are already experiencing the capacity crunch in the United States.”

The problem is not the devices! The problem is the greedy carriers that keep thinking 20 years back when there was no data to speak of, when voice was king and data was confined to floppy disks.

He should actually speak about the carriers and tell them to get up from their precious ass and do something about the lack of transport on their wireless networks.  Invest more in technology instead of crippling the users phone features.  Maybe people would be more inclined to spend money with them.

See, data has escaped and there is no putting this thing in the bottle.  The iPads of the work will consume wireless bandwidth like there is no tomorrow.
