Well well well. Is Europe really "way ahead of the US in wireless", or not?
Let's scrutinize this for a moment. Like analytically (this is obviously a novel way of looking at things).
Back in -95 in Katowice, Poland, somebody please check the english spelling of the town, you could enter a strip joint, have a Bison vodka (or two), have a keen look around if anyone sports a tattoo, and download the e-mails from your boss and that girl of easy virtue you met in the department store in Gdansk two days before (this has never happened to me, obviously, but I heard some other guy talking about it).
In those good old days it was continent wide seamless roaming wireless data _everywhere_. Everywhere in Europe that is. And look mummy no hands! We are not even starting to talk about packet data yet.
(Cut to current situation): Look at the Stateside today. Can you picture these Wood's American Gothic style farmers around Boise, Idaho? Well its already like, let me check my watch, er... yes, 2002, and can you really get a) a subscription with any carrier AND b) get a continent wide data to your laptop by connecting a cable from your phone to your laptop?
(Hint: you can get a)
Is this not the most miserable performance from a Number One High Tech Concentration on the Planet since Limp Bizkit?
