Eric L: The latest report is that GPRS will actually run for the average user for average use (i.e. just plain average) at about 30 kbps.

Is that close to accurate?

Is this sort of like a 56 k modem really runs most of the time at around 40 k, or is there some other factor involved?

In other words is this because of sharing among users, so the more users per cell, the slower the speed?

So more cells will be needed in critical areas to maintain an acceptable speed?

Or what?

And what realistically follows GPRS?

Must that be EDGE?

As you know, I am not a tech wiz, but have a rudimentary understanding - sort of. Smile.

So simple is better, or if I should follow up with someone else here, who do you suggest - Mika?

Or are there any volunteers to help on this?

Best.
