I use the tube quite often, it depends what line you're on. Where stations are close together I don't think theres a massive difference in the avg time spent in the station v's avg time spent in the tunnel.
You may be right - the only time I usually use the tube is to/from KGX to LHR.

This is for, initially, 122 Z1 & Z2 stations so mainly U/G ones.
Still only at stations being my point, 3G coverage, where provided, is generally far more continuous.

Well we don't.
That's the problem. 3G was proposed in the past and dropped. Instead we end up with a cheap imitation - unlicensed, unregulated, unoptimized wifi. 3G was designed from the ground up to work on mobile handsets, while on the move, and in diverse environments. All of which were just hacked-on afterthoughts for wifi.
