and lets face it 2G has big holes, though not many people live in those holes

3G coverage is where business is that use blackberry etc. Look at New York for example, the only places in the state that have 3G are the City and the Hamptons where the bankers retreat for the weekend.
New Jersey. Well Elisabeth is where the Airport is, Newark is between there and NYC, JC has the Goldman Sachs office building and many companies DR sites. Long Branch, see the Hamptons, AC, see the Hamptons.
There are only 37 states on that list, some states have no 3G coverage at all, not even in their capital city.
Thats all very well for the american market but this is the UK market where edge coverage is prattically nil and 3G is is most towns/citys now.
