i was looking at http://www.threegmobile.net/gallery/ an i started thinking to my self, WHY ARE WE SO DAMN BEHIND IN EVERYTHING?. i mean when Wap came out here, japan was already blueprinting thier 3g networks and they had imode (keep in mind japans gov't holds 58% of ntt docomo stock so the ends justify the means http://www.nttdocomo.com a network in which mobile handsets can be used for all sorts of ecommerce ( imagine ordering hot canned corn soup from a vending kiosk with your mobile) not to mention an in car navigation system in real time 3d, scalling the entire metropolitain highway system from overpasses to the nearest massage parlor http://www.mci.panasonic.co.jp/aced/...000/index.html (this navi sys was relased in beta in 98) yet the closest we will ever get will be bluetooth, 802.11b, a couple repeaters and a proposed massive owrellian(sp?) database monitoring every transaction made with credit just because little timmy likes pipebombs. and lets not forget about homeland security. **** that where's my gold wafer & simscan. (note: i really had to vent cuz i hate att)
