With Wi-Fi becoming increasingly available at home, at the office and at public hotspots, users have many opportunities to test it. Typically, users try it on the road, demand it at work and buy it for their homes, with each activity spurring increased usage in the other markets. Moreover, Wi-Fi is educating users for the mobile broadband wireless market, initiating them to the capabilities of 3G/UMTS. Indeed, Wi-Fi, with its true broadband capabilities and growing penetration in the home, the enterprise and public hotspots, may well become pervasive. Market take -up is accelerating, pushed both by the low cost of Wi-Fi radio access systems and by the generalized availability of the Wi-Fi interface in new-generation PDAs and PCs.
