4G
What is 4G? I heard they are testing it in Japan (go figure) but I don't know what it does. Any idea?
...
It's wormhole technology. Instead of just speaking to someone on a wireless phone, you transmit yourself to their location via a disruption in space/time.
Or maybe not.

It's Japanese, so you can buy the phone in a vending machine. It's right by the used schoolgirls' panties and buttplug machines.
The vibration profile has three settings, light, moderate, and tentacle rape.
As well, five handsets can be assembled to complete the Master Grade Super Saiyan Cellular Mecha Happy Smile Time Bot.
Other features include the odd compulsion of North American phones to make feeble attempts to emulate the 4G phone's wallpapers and ringing in broken, grammatically incorrect bastardizations of it's ringtones.
And of course, Hello Kitty faceplates. As standard equipment.

I was going to type out something about zapping stupid poeple but I just can't compete with flydogs reply. Kudos dude.

OMG!
Used school girl panties in vending machines? What the hell am I doing here in Canada?
Christ!
And Hello Kitty faceplates. Where do I sign up?

Remember the communicators on Star Wars? That is 4G.
Really though, it is called FASTER, FASTER, FASTER!

I think 4G is 2100 MHz, thats the standard in Japan not anywhere else anyways, but i am be wrong.

I think 4G will be an improvement to 3G. With 3G we'll be able to make video calls and stuff like that, but the video calls won't be all that -quality wise- kinda like when you're using a web cam where the streaming video keeps stopping like when you're watching a pic slide show. (I hate this about web cams btw) I think 4G will take care of that and video calls will be just how they were intended to be, a real streaming video, and of course everything else will be really reeeeeally fast!
My 2 cents.

UMTS isn't 4g. UMTS is 3G. Gsm has always been mislabeled as 3g technology, when really it's just an advancement of 2G digital technology, also referred to as 2.5G
...
GSM is 2G,
GPRS is 2.5G,
EDGE is 2.75G,
UTMS is 3G,
HDSPA is 3.5G
4G is the successor to 3G (obviously 😛) and it will be capable of Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11) speeds. Wi-Fi speeds are 10MB/second and up with the current highest being 54MB/second and soon to be 108MB/second.

The correct term in HSDPA, not HDSPA!
HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access) is an upgrade for WCDMA (UMTS) networks. It doubles network capacity and increases download data speeds five-fold.

For those behind a firewall...
Japan's NTT DoCoMo is busy testing 4G wireless technology (we're still using 2G here in the US) and has achieved a milestone, a 1Gbps data download speed while moving at 20km/h.
1Gbps while moving is a new record. The same speed while stationary has been reached by both Siemens and DoCoMo in the recent past.
While 3G is a fairly broad term and is not even close to being standard yet, DoCoMo's research into 4G is still very interesting.
The 1Gbps real-time packet transmission was realized through Variable Spreading Factor-Spread Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (VSF-Spread OFDM) radio a...

At present the download speed for mobile internet connections in Japan are between 9.6 kbit/s for 2G cellular, up to 128 kbit/s for PHS, typically 200 kbit/s (nominally 384 kbps) for DoCoMo and Vodafone 3G cellular, and 2.4 Mbps for KDDI/AU CDMA2000-1x-WIN service. However, in actual use the data rates are usually slower, especially in crowded areas, or when the network is "congested". 4G mobile data transmission rates are planned to be up to 20 megabits per second.
