Will broadband mobile be the futur

[hazephase]

With every one has there own mobile will mobile broadband be the future ? However, the main gating issue that will dictate takeup for this technology will be the availability of suitable devices - whether handsets, laptops, datacards, or other types of device such as media players. Mobile broadband will be a device-based technology. We are seen the way VIOP phone have changed the world is mobile Broadband next ?

It already is in some places, my friend in Ireland cant get ADSL as she is too far from the exchange but the mobile network Three goes a deal you get a USB modem and get 10GB of transfer on an (upto) 3.6Gbit network. Ok its not that cheap at 19.99euro per month but its a lot better than dial up.

I'm sure Three in the UK will introduce something similar once they do the full rollout of their high speed data network.

If the mobile internet kicks off then I am sure that will be the best solution for UK's poor optic network cause the UK is behind when it comes to optic networks

Not really, mobile internet uses the same bandwidth on the non-mobile internet part as broadband does its just the end user delivery system thats different. There is a finite amount of bandwidth.

Its not just the UK that will suffer this, saw a news story here about this, one interesting fact from it which is fairly scary.

US Video websites use more bandwidth per month than was used in the whole of the internet in 2000.

It can be the future only if they offer unlimited download at a good speed and price and also with good connectivity as well.

Its not going to be to difficult for them to do that also if you think that the US and UK do not have the fastest broadband but have the highest users

I think most of the world is behind when it comes to fiber optic lines. There are only a few places that I have been that have that capability. I am not sure that it is the best solution. But you will really have no choice.

Yes this would be very exiciting i mean internet on your mobile.However, i only ever need to use the computer for a limited amount of time.Therefore, im not too intrested and im worried devices won't be compatitible and won't function correctly depending were you are.
