163: The Blockbuster 4th of July!

Welcome to IoT Coffee Talk #163 where we have a chat about all things IoT over a cup of coffee or two with some of the industry's leading business minds, thought leaders and technologists in a totally unscripted, organic format. Thanks for joining us. Sit back with a cup of Joe and enjoy the morning banter.

In this week's episode, Leonard, Rob, Steve, Tom, Marc, and Bill jump on Web3 for a special 4th of July episode of IoT Coffee Talk to wax nostalgic as Rob visits Bend Oregon and encounters the last Blockbuster Video. Will IoT be of any value when a problem is bigger than what IoT can solve? Sounds like a no. Should we bother? Why is a strong 5G signal not good enough? What is the role of fiber in bringing about equity across the many digital divides? Also, find out why density matters in scaling the economics of connecting everyone.
