Policy Makers and Industry Leaders Continue the Debate on IP Communications at Spring VON, March 14-17, 20069 March 2006
pulvermedia announced today that Founder and Chairman Jeff Pulver appeared this morning on CNBC's Squawk Box to share his opinions regarding who should pay for Internet and high speed infrastructure improvements issues. CNBC's analysts widely agree that consumers, application providers and access providers all want better and faster service, and this morning's Squawk Box centered on discussing who should pay for it.
"It has always been my opinion that the application providers are central players on the web because they provide the ingenuity that can change the world," said Jeff Pulver, founder and chairman, pulvermedia. "Our industry should not constrain their creativity by burdening them with incremental costs, but rather, the access providers - who charge end users - should be the ones responsible for ensuring fast, reliable access that enables customers to see what they want to see, and do what they want to do on the web."
Debates such as this, and many others, will continue next week in San Jose, Calif. at Spring 2006 VON. The event kicks off with the full day, VON Communications Summit on March 14, and will be followed by three additional days of the VON Conference and Expo, through March 17th.
