		<description><![CDATA[On my recent business trip to Tokyo, I had the opportunity to have lunch with my good friend Hajime Kii and his family.  I know Kii-san when he was a senior executive at NTT America and I was working at CITI at Columbia University.  Kii-san was kind enough to arrange a visit to NTT DOCOMO’s Future Station while I was in town.  The Future Station is where DOCOMO presents a film showcasing its high-concept vision of its product and service offerings for the near-term future.  The Future Station is very cool.  Being there reminded me why I got into telecommunications in the first place – because tomorrow will always a brighter day with bigger (smaller), better, faster and Cooler Stuff.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Every once and a while, one comes across something so trivial yet so flattering.  I was fortunate enough to attend the International Telecommunications Society 18th Biennial meeting in Tokyo last week.  I attended the panel on radio spectrum on the last day of the conference.  Two of the four papers presented on the spectrum panel were derived in some way from research I published in 2009.
 
I have been working in radio communications for nearly a decade.  It was so encouraging for me to see that my recent work is having such an important impact on the direction of current research.  If you work hard enough and long enough, you sometimes you earn bragging rights.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Japan Communications Inc. just launched a new product for Hewlett-Packard. HP will now sell netbooks in Japan which come with 100 minutes of mobile wireless connectivity. Consumers can buy connectivity on a pay-as-you-go basis from Japan Communications, but branded as an HP service. While Japan Communications negotiated with DoCoMo to get on its network, it was only able to do so because the Japanese Ministry for Communications and Information created which rules opened the networks of three largest wireless operators to wholesale.

This created for Japan Communications a really cool new business model with implications for carriers, devices manufacturers, and application service providers around the world. It remains to be seen whether the Europe and the US should follow suit.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am very pleased to announce that the FCC has just published a suite of papers which I worked on while I was there. This work sought to tackle some of the intractable problems facing spectrum policy. For nearly a century, spectrum policy has focused on &#8220;scarcity&#8221; and resolving &#8220;harmful interference&#8221;. This was largely due [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The other day while I was waiting for a haircut, I picked up a German auto magazine. Since I cannot read German, I figured I would get more out of it than any other magazine. At the very least I could make some sense of the classifieds. Well, I found this, the sQuba. It is [...]]]></description>
