Wall Street Journal [1] technology columnist Walt Mossberg, or "Uncle Walt" to his fans, last week declared that the web is becoming a video medium. However, he went on to bash existing U.S. broadband networks as compared to the rest of the world, deeming it a problem for delivering video over the Internet. The comments, made during an executive summit held by Beet.tv [2] last week, were overshadowed by the noted curmudgeon stating that the Apple iPhone will be "3G in 60 days."
