the network of the future will be more than just another g as a look at this.e'll take a big leap forward as a moving to 5g, the fifth generation of our wireless network. we are going use these foundry innovation centers to break went into tapping into those capabilities we will do this in verticals like healthcare, manufacturing and retail but we will equally do this as we tap into iot, smart cities of public safety in new ways as these capabilities emerge. we are doing this because we believe that 5g is going to make this connected near -- not just the possible but it's going to bring in the forefront and is also going to blur the difference between fixed and wireless connectivity. and 5g is going to offer latency that equates -- think about this, complacency from the time you hit the enter key to the time you a response. we talk about latency now that is close to the time it takes the brain to interpret a visual image. we have seen latency and 5g networks in rural world in a a static 9012 milliseconds. the future begins now because we are already launching t
