Hi 4321,
That's the scenario we would like to see. In the other scenario, the MNOs sell access to their inefficient and expensive environment and take a toll in doing so.
For your scenario to happen, it's going to be due to client demand and individual users don't have the clout to force the change. So the roadmap isn't about what makes sense from a cost perspective. The MNOs will pass their costs along and individual users will not be offered a choice. It's whether and when someone like the DoD forces the issue.
awk,
The Global Platform has to play nice with all the actors involved initially. As previously posted there will be multiple Tokens able to be used in the User Centric Trusted Ecosystem for things like mobile payment.
Once the Financial Services Industry, Mobile Network Operators, Digital rights Management etc. industry see how efficient the running of applets in Trustzone is and the ability for each of those above actors to have their own MTM's to protect their Space the need for the Secure Elements will no longer be required and will decrease the Bill of Material Cost of the device. JMHO
Next step a Wave/ARM announcement so Wave can be embedded in all Arm Chips and not just in Samsungs???
