Wireless Personal Broadband provides a new category of services that are enabled by the availability of affordable broadband connectivity at home, at work and on the go. Today, fueled by the widespread adoption of affordable broadband connectivity to the home, everyone is seeing new media rich applications emerging such as IPTV, user generated content, and social networking services. This is in addition to the emergence of new delivery initiatives such as Direct to Customer (D2C) media content, online synchronized games, music and video on demand, and also quad-play, which bundles TV, broadband with both fixed and mobile voice service. Tomorrow, as technologies such as WiMAX make "Mobile" broadband connectivity affordable, broadband services will become personal much like the personalization of the cell phone today.
