Story: Nortel demo proves reality of Super 3G

the 'reality' is that in the year 2000 the original 'speed' for downloads to a 3G handset was supposed to be 2Mbps (Mega/Million bits per second). But wait a minute, if that's the case then the initial anticipated download speed would be a Super Super3G?
So what's actually happened is the anticipated speed has dropped, so the 'demo' proves absolutely nothing apart from the speed has 'dropped' and not increased. Add to this that 3G technology cannot handle more than a few users per base (station) and hey presto the speed once again drops to the extent the call would end.
