   Very useful video yet can’t agree upon saying WiFI and WiMAX are in 4th G, I would rather say 2.5G

    [...] Solution: The primary different will be the internet speed so you can download faster. I don’t think IPhone 4G will be coming soon .. not in Australia. To find out more:http://www.telecombooksblog.com/the-difference-between-3g-and-4g-wireless.htm [...]

    Excellent video that I was able to share with a friend who asked me what the differences were. I knew the biggest part of it was speed but it was great to have this so thoroughly explain everything.

    Appreciate the roundup. One key technology not discussed in the 3G/4G mix is FLASH-OFDM (Fast low-latency access with seamless handoff orthogonal frequency division multiplexing). I did my thesis work with the 802.20 technology back in 2005 and was able to get 3Mbs tower to tower handoff in Washington DC with there network owned by Office of Chief Technology Officer (OCTO). This was before Qualcom bought out the technolgy rights from Flarion. It is a direct competitor to WiMax and 802.16. Not sure why the slow roll in the US other than possibly due to capitol investment in other technologies.

    Thanks for the great explanation, it was clear and easy to understand.

    I have been seeing Sprint advertising a 4G network and am wondering if you knew if their network is performing to the capabilities you described in your video, and how far away the other providers, AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, etc., are from being able to offer the same experience?
