OT - Read an article where Bill Gates was saying that, given
India is/will demonitize their currency, the cheap credit that
comes with it will cause an explosion in digtization (sp?) in a
lot of area, including phones and software developed in
Africa to do things like make your phone into a bank, with the
ability to add and withdraw funds (just one example).
Said that cell phone makers will benefit greatly. Not sure if
this is any good news for the op/net sector. What NOK gets
from someone else branding their phones. But I'd think we're
talking cheap phones that are designed for other
third world countries. I also don't know how much, and when,
there would be an infrastructure
build-out to support this 'digital revolution.'
