I figured someone would bring that likely misquote out at some point. I say likely misquote because there is no evidence that he actually said it.
Now... now very, very few have any "need" for 25 megabit/s via mobile service to their phone. You would be hard-pressed to find an actual need for more than 5 megabit/s to a phone and yet in most areas, you can get well into double-digits on your phone with existing technology and infrastructure. Hell, I can often get over 100 megabit/s on my phone. Seems to work for me.

Who needs more than 640Kb of memory?
We don't know what the future holds. This is an interesting read, featuring 5g to perform a "hologram" phone call:
