But what about those who need to transmit xxx-rated movies
from the backseat of their limo, still need 3G??

As does those who just have a lot of people living
within the same square kilometer and need the new
bandwidth, GPRS or WCDMA.

As does those who need more bandwidth in their work,
like communicator and HSCSD users, not willing to
pay for "best effort" packet networks.

The interesting thing with WLAN and to some degree
for bluetooth, is that the more popular they get,
the worse they will work.

And in all cases the key is the handset or card with
all of them.

Luckily Nokia has never seen WLAN as a disruptive
technology but as an enabling.

And the key to that for wireless telecom is running on a
battery, wouldn't like to have any of the present
WLAN chips and RF parts draining my battery.

Btw, changing from one WLAN station to another is
pretty much like asynchronous WCDMA, but multipath
fading and link budget can be much worse.
