Re: Seems like not such a difficult problem to solve....
Joe, I am in agreement with you.  It appears that the tactic they are using is of the old model. 

Both owning the data, services, systems, and building a single architecture is the way we used to solve problems, which takes time, is limited by what you have invested in, etc.  It would seem that linking their systems and accessing other systems, as well as using virtualization, would be far more effective.

It's great that they are recognizing the need but they need to update their approaches.

The new economy isn't based upon ownership anymore; it's based upon access.  Google knows this as well as anybody.  Access is bought; access is sold.  Millennials care little for ownership -- and businesses have realized that they shouldn't care so much about it either.  ;)

Seems like not such a difficult problem to solve....
Telcos should try to set up "competiting" sub-divisions -- like GM created Saturn, Buick, Chevy, etc... Telcos should let smaller teams try to build out better consumer interfaces to see what works, and then whatever works gets spread to the larger parent telco.

It's almost what's already happening. Google doesn't own its own spectrum. Wireless operators like Freedompop and Karma and Cricket and ... are all working out the niche markets and innovative services that might catch on.
