I actually just saw what other countries where gonna get and then expressed anger with what our american counterparts are doing. What I was saying applies to that theory, they should be spending money making quality products.. let that be 4g, lte, wimax and so on. I have tmobile and whats next for us is the new 4g with Comcast.. I hate comcast so maybe they can change my view on them....]]>Dec 17th 2009 11:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/Dec 17th 2009 12:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/Dec 17th 2009 12:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/
4G is a marketing term, let it go, Telstra calls their network "Next G" and often inferred it was somehow better than UMTS/HSPA. HSPA+ which is an actual thing is already scheduled for +80mbit.

As for yer Sprint/Verzion CDMA/EVDO networks... Ahh sigh, I think I might leave you with yer marketed fantasies.]]>Dec 17th 2009 10:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/
"Hey, dipshits, if you spent a fraction of the money you spend on ridiculous litigation and shitty cry baby advertising, you'd actually have a network to compete with.

It's really a software upgrade, not a hardware upgrade so it's not so much an issue of how big the target country is.

Then again. Supposing you are in a country that still lacks a national UMTS/HSPA network and what network that exists is behind a few generations... Well in that case it will be a long time for rollout.

Thankfully this isn't an issue unless you are American

I don't think it's fair to compare a country with 9 million people in 175 thousand square miles to a country with over 300 million people in 3.8 million square miles. This goes for many of these island chains and small European countries that have these HSPA+ networks. It's just not fair to compare to the US.]]>Dec 17th 2009 3:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/
Ohhh. And Australia, nearly as big as the USA with less than a tenth the possible subscribers paying for the network to be rolled out.

Economies of scale eh, nah. It's slackness. The problem in the USA isn't land mass or people. It's that you mob didn't start rolling out a UMTS/HSPA network until 2007. Australia started in 2002. You mob are 5 years behind In roll out plain and simple.

The US is 3.8 million square miles large, while Australia is 2.9 million square miles. That's not even close. The bigger point is that the US has over 300 million people, while Australia barely has 22 million. Not only that, but the population density is so drastically different. Most of the population in Australia resides in the East and South East.

The US on the other hand is not only a significantly larger mass, but the population is spread out all over the place. That means they have to implement these networks all over the country, not just on one coast line.

It's simple logic. It's easier to deploy an HSPA network in AU then it is to do it in the US. That's a fact. It doesn't matter when they started. I get what you're saying here, but realistically it doesn't matter in the large scheme of things.]]>Dec 17th 2009 11:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/Dec 17th 2009 4:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/
Noone wrote that Ericsson had rolled this out to all of sweden (they doesn't have a network to roll out to).]]>Dec 17th 2009 4:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/Dec 17th 2009 8:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/Dec 17th 2009 9:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/Dec 18th 2009 2:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/17/ericsson-demos-42mbps-hspa-evolution-for-the-laypeople/Dec 18th 2009 4:34AM
