There is agile software development and agile companies. I am impressed that a big company like T-mobile can move this quickly to recognize a trend and embrace it. Having worked at a large company, just getting approval on press release can take a week.

Imagine all the various groups that need to get aligned to make this happen.


I haven't used it -- Is Pokemon Go a big data hog? from screens it looks like simple maps - no bitmaps and images from the camera, so no data there...


Let me guess: it is unencrypted so they can mine it for great profit.


Is it just me or are we witnessing some sort of miracle?


This is basically giving Net Neutrality the finger.
