PERSONAL COMMUNICATION NETWORKS
Permit person-to-person rather than location-to-location. Each person will have his or her own personal phone number associated with a lightweight telephone that he or she carries around. People will not only transmit telephone conversations but also computer-based information, voice mail, electronic messaging, call screening, and other personal from anywhere. They will unlock levels of freedom we don’t yet know, and they will be important for special events, such as political conventions and sporting events, as well as for emergencies, such as those caused by natural disasters.
