4G - So Fast It'll Blow Your Mind!
Posted by Darius Wey in "NEWS" @ 03:00 PM
"Cellphones capable of transmitting data at blistering speeds have been demonstrated by NTT DoCoMo in Japan. In experiments, prototype phones were used to view 32 high definition video streams, while travelling in an automobile at 20 kilometres per hour. Officials from NTT DoCoMo say the phones could receive data at 100 megabits per second on the move and at up to a gigabit per second while static. At this rate, an entire DVD could be downloaded within a minute. DoCoMo's current 3G (third generation) phone network offers download speeds of 384 kilobits per second and upload speeds of 129 kilobits per second."
It's cruel knowing that while some countries are struggling hard to get 3G off the ground, everybody's technological playground, Japan, has pushed 4G prototypes to roughly 100Mbps on-the-go, and up to 1Gbps in a stationary position. :drool:
