truly, sdr is the smartest way to go.
we (as consumers) need to demand it--that's the only way we're gonna get the push to go where we need to go. once a good (i.e. solid and efficient) hardware platform has been worked out and tested, nothing will be able to compete with software controlled radio again.
when new networks and protocols come out, all you need is a firmware update.
