Nobody. But I do need 25mbs and more to the hotspot which also happens to be part of the electronic multi-tool hanging off my belt. Ken Olsen was right: nobody wanted a DEC mainframe in their home. His failure to grasp the nature of what computers would become, what folks -would- want in their home, was complete. The day is coming when your "phone" records and streams 360 degree panoramic high-resolution video to the cloud all the time unless you intentionally turn it off.
