Analyst thinks that NOW is the best time possible for Apple to ditch the carriers system and begin to offer its own wireless service directly to iPhone and iPad customers. The idea of leaving the carrier system is one that we think of in terms of Google and the supposed push of the Nexus One to break the carrier stronghold, but in regards to Apple the idea was one that came to light in the Steve Jobs bio.

 

Steve Jobs, former Apple CEO, had wanted to replace carriers, and spent a lot of time on the idea in the years leading up to the original iPhone launch. Jobs' vision was to use unlicensed WiFi spectrum to create Apple own carrier network.

Wireless industry strategist Whitey Bluestein does not posit as to how Apple would create its own wireless network, but he does believe that the time is right for the move to happen. Bluestein has a history of working with major wireless carriers and big name tech companies like Microsoft, Nokia and Best Buy.

 

Bluestein says that Apple's infrastructure of retail distribution combined with its iTunes platform give it the perfect base to launch its own wireless service, and Apple has pending patents from 2006 which pertain to network architecture.


Apple want to make a step ahead of Google, leaving it (Google) to catch-up later.
