How Apple will become a mobile carrier

Whitey Bluestein, GigaOM:

Apple will provide wireless service directly to its iPad and iPhone customers. First, Apple will sell data packages bundled with iPads. Then it will sell data and international roaming plans to iPhone customers through the iTunes Store. And in time — sooner than many think — Apple will strike wholesale deals with several mobile operators so that Apple can provide wireless service directly to its customers, as Apple Mobile.

Interesting prediction. And certainly not too much of a stretch to imagine this happening.
