Wireless broadband and Cable broadband
Broadband means speed and is a collective name given to a range of high speed internet connections that are normally switched on.
Wireless boradband is ten times faster than a dial-up connection plus it is completly independent of your phoneline. You connect via a small outdoor antenna to a network of small community-based radio repeater stations. Upload speeds are typically half the download speed and if the service uses a satellite feed to connect back to the internet there may be some limitations such as not being able to use video conferencing tools.
Cable broadband is broadband delivered via a cable and is only available for people with cable service in their area. Cable broadband is optic fibres that offer an excellent way of getting online, watching television and using the telephone.

The World of Multimedia
There are many types of multimedia that we use in our daily lives. Mobile phones are used everyday to communicate with friends and family. Computers are essential because we can find information on anything and this is helpful when doing research and other schoolwork. Also, we can communitcate with other people using the computer through email and chat and computers are therfore used constantly.
It would be hard for people nowadays to live without a computer or mobile phone, and I believe that we would have a hard time finding information and communicating with friends and family. In my opinion, phones and computers will become more like a part of life in the future, and it will become harder for us to live without these.
The video on future directions seems pretty reliable to me. There are already some things that reminds me of those items in it. They are faster, easier and portable. I cannot see any any disadvantages in these future items.
