The article on the InfoWorld site today, U.S. lags behind other nations in broad-band speeds, is a common complaint I've heard for many years.

And if you really want to be aggravated, read this story on our site about what they are doing in Korea with WiMax.I have always hear that Japan, Korea, and most of the Scandinavian countries are light years ahead of us in terms of quality of service and performance in wireless, particularly cell phone service. I think much of this is simply due to the fact that for better or worse the wireless networks, i.e., the infrastructure, are unregulated. In contrast, in most countries worldwide, the government dictates that everyone will use GSM, or in the case of Korea, CDMA, and so on.There may be competition among service providers, but everyone is on the same page when it comes to the underlying technology. It is obviously too late to do anything about it. And perhaps over time, wireless networks, like broadcast networks, will align behind a single technology. Until that happens, there is not much you can do about it but move. Technology Industry
