"At best, Wi-Fi hotspot data speeds will match that of HSDPA, but the 3G extension is more secure, ubiquitous and does not require an additional billing relationship with another operator provider. Authentication onto the network is also more straightforward since the technology simply uses the subscriber’s SIM card. Authentication is still an issue the public wireless LAN industry is coming to terms with." (Yes, Eric, I understand that this was not your opinion). This is not exactly true. I have some experience of one European operator that has both GSM/GPRS/EDGE and WLAN networks. At least they have been able to integrate them so that everything goes to one phone bill, and also WLAN uses SIM for authentication. Not really seamless operation, but kind of roaming. Still, very useful and painless system.
