It's still fun to come to games, and it's still fun to be in the Seattle crowd.

I don't have the fire in the belly right now. It's one of those been there, done that deals.

I think leadership is more than being able to cross the t's and dot the i's. It's about character and integrity and work ethic.

What you see happening right now with some of the consolidation is all about more spectrum and capital formation that give you the scale, scope and resources to invest in that 3G world.

This years keynote session is a clear reminder that wireless data technology is expanding its reach beyond that of an alternative to wireline telephony. We have gathered an exclusive group of business leaders to share how wireless is being integrated into their companys business strategies and what it means for their bottom lines. The presence of these telecom, media and entertainment giants on our center stage is a great indicator of the impact wireless data has made on countless industries.

These companies know that at their current size they're not going to be big enough to have the necessary capital, and they don't have enough spectrum to get to the third generation.

Life is very good. I'm the president and Chief Executive Officer of the Wireless trade association, the CTIA.
