Just wait..

"Duh" makes a good point. I have no idea what 3G is supposed to be capable of. I'm sure it would look fantastic if only 2 people in the entire world were using it. Just wait until 2+ million people are using this 4G/LTE system. In comes crowding and interference, packet loss, delay, structures in the way... blah blah blah. I'm not sure that I will ever trust wireless to carry all my data as opposed to having a wired connection at home, and work. Weather will come into play also. 
Good evolution, but its still no the opposable thumb that wireless needs to be great.

Duh

Sure you have those speeds, and more, on fixed lines, during tests in-house, just like this is a test and not what the consumer will be getting obviously if alone because with 2 users you have all the bandwidth and frequencies for yourself unlike a real commercial system in operation.

Fibre killer

If it comes soon and at an affordable prices , there will be no need to replace old landlines with fibre uk. It will save lots of money and inconvenience in digging the roads etc. Wimax is also needed to offer competition. While there are Wimax licences in UK , the longer they take to bring out the commercial service , the value of their licence will diminish rapidly with LTE on the horizon.

Goodbye?

Goodbye fixed internet? I think this is one big step closer.

Great to see :)

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
