Japan are always ahead technologically, I am really interested in the connected home – something Singapore I believe are taking seriously and that will not happen for a while and it will take a 4G network to make best use of a connected home. Its true that only one company in the UK is offering 3G services but all the other mobile companies plan to follow soon. I doubt the same mistakes will be made a second time around by mobile companies, I am not sure how they will sell 3G.

Look at GPRS and Vodafone Live its complete tripe, you can’t really do anything. It will take something like an internet connected home with washing machines, hoovers and CCTV security that can be controlled by a mobile to lift 4G off the ground in this country.
