I don't care for 3G. GSM is a crappy technology here in the states (I
blame the implementors). We have flat data rates for a variety of
reasons.

Additionally, why are we expecting 3G from OM, they are having a hard
time getting a phone right. Why are we holding them to the same
standards as Apple, HTC, etc... Apple can't get 3G in the iPhone for
two years. Their hardware staff is probably a thousand times bigger
than the 2 guys working on mokoforesight right now. (Based on the
assumption they have 2000 people doing hardware, including vendors,
and contractors. Give OM a break.
Please....
