If your definition of a few years is 25 years, I agree. However, for the general public, that ain't happening anytime soon.

25 years?! I wasn't suggesting abandoning public transportation and automobiles for hovercrafts.

We're practically there already. If there's a way (and I'm sure there is) to make Wrigley a giant hotspot, most people who go to Cubs games would already have this capability. The MLB app on my iPhone does all of that already -- the only problem is the drag on the network.

We're not even close to there, I bet not even 10% of the people at the game even have smartphones. You're dreaming if you think anything like that is happening in less than a decade or 2.

I was low, but 7 out of 10 people in the US don't have them.

How many people don't have a cellphone of any type? I'm in that group.
