Chart illustrating implementation time of new products. According
to Siemens AG, over the years, new appliances have taken different
time spans to reach 100 million U.S. customers. The radio, for
example, took 90 years to reach 100 million U.S. customers;
telephone, 70 years; television, 50 years; cable TV Network,
25 years; computer, 20 years; mobile phones, 15 years; Internet
less than 5 years. The speed of implementation continues to
grow faster and faster with every new product invented. I am
convinced that the introduction of Hydrogen and Fuel Cells applications,
products and services will take even less time; maybe just a
few years. |
