| 3G is a collection of technologies
— including EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA, and HSUPA — that promise
to bring high-speed data services to mobile workforces via their cell
phones.
Progress toward ubiquitous 3G coverage is being made, but competition
from rival technologies (such as Wimax) continue to complicate the market.
Many users have rushed to purchase 3G smart phones and handsets, and
roaming between carriers, such as Verizon and Cingular, continues to
be a concern.
Still, 3G holds enormous promise for users to always be on the cellular
network without the security worries of them being signed on to a wireless
hotspot.

announcements, and reviews about 3G services and technologies. |
