It seems we are stalled at the 3G/4G barrier.  Korea and few others seem to
be crossing it.  What is the social/economic problem?  I assume it is not a
technical hurdle.  I'm thinking it is a pricing issue...4G is simply too
powerful for the pricing models of all the older products to survive.

While I know I have positioned myself as a technology fan and optimist, I
always worry about the necessary leaps beyond various boundaries.  3g/4g
seems a huge hurdles we've been discussing for 10 years.
