A Mall Compatible Convergence

Malls can not have WiFi, because shoppers would leave the store within the Mall to research purchases, (possibly on a Mall bench).

With the beginning of the Tablet PC Era, (then the E-paper Era), shoppers can stay in stores to research purchases.

Therefore, it is an interesting coincidence that WiMax and Tablet PC's are converging to bring internet access, and in-store research capabilities, to shoppers.
