Equipment Infrastructure Patent?

Deployment models Controlled

Well known ERICSSON Reference model Customer lock in needed Central management

Open Current PC model Services loaded from anywhere

Controlled Deployment Advantages

Defined reliability Ease of use and mind for customer Immediate scaling Payment model

Disadvantages Central management is bottleneck for innovation Very difficult market start because too many chicken-egg

problems

Open model Advantages

Easier to have real innovation No customer lock in, more customer choice Could start yesterday

Disadvantages Incompatibilities between services User needs to be more technical savy Slower scaling (diversification) Advertising no good payment model in the long run

Provocations Openness will succeed because before

manufacturers, providers and operators have their act together, this model is already in place

The closed model will win because the open model will be so messy that customers want the reliability of the telephone system

The internet is completely unlike the telephony system. Lack of lock in makes operators like today infeasible in the long run.
