Seybold’s next several years are past the half way point...


Grandma will never go to starbucks w/ her laptop--unless you
believe the IBM commercials ("act like a big guy--pay like a
little guy")--but she will go to Kohls and shop till she drops
with her 3G phone that guides her to the bargain bin

Little Andrea is also so cute--Grandma might as well start
drinking tea at starbucks--Grandma will not touch a computer for the life of her--and she darn well does not like having ppl fiddle around with her wiring but Andrea has a web cam so her
calypso powered phone is cool at both Kohls and starucks...
say Andrea--how do you like these shoes? No more guess work
everybody gets what they want w/ Calypso

All business models are not the same--companies that deal
directly with the consumer can add value by bringing people
together--that is the approach to wifi--data the blackberry way
etc. is for all us nerds--Calypso has a much broader market
and that is how it should be pitched
