By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=L._Winslow]L. Winslow In the Trucking industry we keep hearing promises of the next new technology, which will revolutionize the current, unfortunately we have heard many more promises than realities when it comes to wireless cell phone technology. When the major move came with 3G Wireless we found no service areas, patchy service or blank space along major sections of highway. Sure most of the major freeways had service along most of the route, but not all. Worse some 2-lane highways had nothing anywhere close. Some companies used both the old system, ROAM and the new 3G system in order to try to attempt to get all areas. Many companies we sold a bill of goods and switched only to have found nothing worked well. Feeling burned, it took a while to regain the trust and then the next new thing came with all the public relations, cute sales gal coming to visit and mass media advertising along with the trade journal articles, white paper (brochure-advertisements) and still everyone wondered; is it real this time? Shame on me the first time, next time shame on them. Jim Mele, Editor of Fleet Owner said it best in one of his editorials; EV-DO, EDGE, GPRS, 1XRTT, UMTS, 3G, 4G, CDMA, GSM, iDEN - it's called wireless communications, but sometimes it seems more like a Tower of Babel than a cell tower. Not only is the wireless world in love with acronyms, but it's also blessed and cursed with rapid and relentless development of new technology. It's an exciting environment for those in that industry, but for the rest of us it's a bewildering mix of potential and promises. Indeed that about sums it up however, we can see the progression now and the technology is improving, many in the communication industry believe that as things grow the technology will become more robust, have better coverage, maintain low price-points and remain reliable. The T-5 Group (The Trucking Think Tank Team) is bullish on the future of cell phone technology, although at the same time we realize that some of the fast-paced roll-outs left a lot to be desired and in the interim did not deliver on their promises to the trucking industry.
