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.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
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.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

I'd think real-time services in wide-area hotspots...things of the nature Butcher describes, will become viable in 3-5 years. I wouldn't be surprised to see something like this in a testing mode within a year or two.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
That's fine, but suggesting that it would be a practical way to get replays and stats at a game for the masses, is not reality and won't be reality anytime soon.

Plus why would you want to go through the trouble of setting down your beer/food, pulling your phone outta your pocket, and finding the replays? Who the hell wants to sit with a phone in their hand the entire game, rather than just quickly glancing up and seeing something? I think it's a dumb idea.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

I have to agree with Ruby here. I have a multi media phone and I hate looking up streaming video or stuff like that. I would love the jumbotron regardless of what I can do with my phone and I'm sure there's a lot of others like us.

I just envision a close play at home plate, everything in the whole venue is quiet except for the sound of phones flipping/sliding open and then 15 seconds later everyone boos the call. It would be weird.
