D Who put the Q in the QQQ Phone? Done 1.2
Frank Benlin, the organizational force behind the Net Girls, was toying with a VPN chip one day and got off task, for some reason he wanted to hear a song. Does that ever happen to you?
It was Who put the something or another, and sure enough, just that fragment in a search engine was enough to find Who put the Bomp and it was the song he was looking for right down to the rama, lama, ding dong.
And somehow, listening to the song gave him the idea of putting a qubit chip in the mobile phone he and a few friends were working on. The idea was an open source, open platform chassis that could accept a variety of closed source chips, such as a VPN chip.
His friend, Niels Bohr, came over and they were talking about his latest crazy idea.
Niels said, I get it, they are small, don't use much power and have unique characteristics, but small doesn't just mean the size of a grain of sand, these computers are only 2 16 qubits. What can you do with them?
Well, Frank said slowly, the ones by Smothers are entangled, only work in pairs. They have been tested to 1000s of kilometers and don't need the public network.
Niels, shook his head, Smothers chips have an error rate of 25%
- which you can deal with by repeating the calculation - Frank broke in
- but it's not deterministic, you can have 4 or 5 errors in a row
- yes, but you can determine when there is an error, because it acts like a wave instead of a particle. Niels looked up at that and laughed.
So, we have a paired very low power system that gives you symmetric key cryptography, transmit/receive doesn't require a public network, granted both entanglement and the error rate means low bandwidth, high latency, what do you see as a use case, asked Niels?
Tricked out Q phone is pricey a bunch of them are corporate. If we could build a data center rack to hold the chips, like those old VPN concentrators, that gives you both secure and emergency communications. And there is probably a use case for paired phones, parent child, spouses, partners in business. I think there is a use case and since they are paired, we simply put the socket on the VPN chip for people that want it. And look, we already built a brand for Q phones and there is no Q, we can put the Q in the Q phone.
Within a week Frank had a dozen Qs ready to go with the new chip and the Net Girls started the Alpha testing.
