Chaz,

<< GPRS will actually run for the average user for average use (i.e. just plain average) at about 30 kbps >>

The speed of GPRS relative to timeframe seems a bit hard to determine. This clip below speaks to the issue relative to an Infineon product introdution. Sorry no direct Nokia content in his post.

INCREASED DATA SPEEDS FOR GPRS PHONES

gsmnewsreel.com

German semiconductor company Infineon is claiming a world first for its two new single-chip GSM solutions which achieve GPRS class 10. The baseband logic device (E-GOLD+) and the radio frequency transceiver (SMARTi+) can, when applied together, feature significantly higher data rates than current solutions, reaching up to 107kbit/s.

Its introduction is planned for second quarter 2000 with volume production starting end of 2000.
