5G and with it, new use cases like self-driving cars and IoT becoming a reality. While it won't immediately be available in all markets, ATT's announcement last week was a big step forward. I believe this time next year many of us will be talking about developing new applications that take advantage of 5G.

I am excited to see the uptake of 5G next year. As far as I understand it’s going to be a price similar to our current 4G plans.

I would love to see a network that is much slower (maybe 2G speeds) that is ultra cheap to use.

IoT and other low bandwidth systems could use this. Hell, even a free system based on mesh networking would be really cool!
