<description><![CDATA[cmaenginsb posted : <div class="bquote"><small>said by <a href="/profile/635340" onClick="this.blur(); return popup(event,'/uidpop?ajh=1&uid=635340');">rahvin112</a>:</small><br><br>Some of the companies that are 2 or 2.5G right now will likely skip 3g right on to 4G, just as some of them went right from analog to 3G. 4G is a much bigger deal than 3G. 4G allows for enough bandwidth to make mobile high usage Internet available without minuscule limits. Some predict 4G will make mobile broadband so cheap and easy that it will begin to make serious competition with land line Internet. 4G offers not only latency equivalent to land line but bandwidth and a shared pool of 10x more bandwidth available per tower. Tack in the 700mhz spectrum and you have a major third tier broadband provider that could bring real competition to the land line market and might make non-satellite rural broadband a reality.<br> </div>There's one big issue to this, what good is it to have 20 Mbps to the phone when the cellsite backhaul is a single T-1.  This is a problem providers are finding with 3G now, they have to increase capacity on the site.<br>Add to that 64QAM will require a higher RSSI and that means you can see new sites in the future as well.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[jjsk8r85 posted : what gets me is that everyone is pushing 4G already, when a good portion of the country doesn't even have real 3g yet. why upgrade something that doesn't exist?]]></description>
