from Corante: "McKinsey says the spread of broadband Internet access worldwide "has implications not only for providers of broadband access and content but also for companies beyond the telecommunications and media sectors." While there currently are no killer apps for broadband beyond the lure of high-speed net access itself, McKinsey says broadband is poised to be highly disruptive. The spread of broadband may "steadily accelerate the acceptance of teleworking and the provision of teleservices of all types,"
says McKinsey which envisions expansion of university-level remote learning programs, and similar changesin financial services, health care, the public sector, and retailing.
