Cisco CEO: "Wi-Fi will eventually carry 80 to 90% of the growth of cellular networks"

 
Mike Dano brings to FierceBroadbandWireless some predictions made by Cisco's CEO, John Chambers (pictured), during his interview at AllThingsD's D11 conference:

• "Transport will become free. … Architectures will change. With intelligence throughout the network, the network will become the platform of the future
   
• improvements in the designs of wireless networks will allow operators to slowly bring down the cost of mobile data services, as they have been able to do with voice calling
   
• service provider Wi-Fi products ..  use unlicensed spectrum to offload data. Wi-Fi will eventually carry 80 to 90 percent of the growth of cellular networks"

I cant avoid mentioning my recent post - "Israel: MNOs won’t Offload to Wi-Fi" (here) ..
