benefits of wireless

Obama from a speech at Northern Michigan University...

“It’s about a rural community in Iowa or Alabama where farmers can monitor weather across the state and markets across the globe. It’s about an entrepreneur on Main Street with a great idea she hopes to sell to the big city. It’s about every young person who no longer has to leave his hometown to seek new opportunity — because opportunity is right there at his or her fingertips.”

Seems to me as if this would be applicable to almost any country around the world, especially when we're facing issues like the youth bulge, a lack of quality employment opportunities, and the social costs of urbanization.
