People use their mobile devices (not laptop computers) in places that don't have normal 80211. in them. I use my phone when I'm waiting for a meeting, in line at the store, on the subway. Anyplace that I don't want to break out my laptop and search for a wifi spot.
As Jon pointed out, this isn't about the most revolutionary thing that will ever come to market. It's about new ways for you to make money using your existing content investments.
You already paid for the stuff.. you might as well sell it any way you can.
