Last year, I got into a tiff with Digiweb over its insistence that it was rolling out a 4G network (dutifully reported by other media organs). I wrote a column saying that it was just marketing spin and not at all what the vast majority of people would understand as being '4G' (ie a mobile, cellular-based successor to 3G, 2.5G and 2G). I'm curious -- is anyone using its 4G service? If so, for what?
Then there is Wimax. Intel and Irish Broadband (now owned by Imagine) are insisting that this is the next big thing and is just around the corner. The same way it's been just around the corner for the last two years. Where is it? Who is using it?
