Gadget Patrol: 21st century phone [Charles Stross]

Great essay on the future of smartphones and cell networks. "The real message here is that if Google succeeds, the economic basis of your mobile telephony service in 2019 is going to be unrecognizably different from that of 2009. ... What's good for the internet is good for Google. Right now, the phone companies are not good for the internet. If I'm right about the grand strategy, the Googlephone will change that."
