But the fact that they are even thinking about it and that they have more money then many countries in the world makes me wonder.
As someone pointed out the 700 mhz range is limited. Second, 3.5G is here now with 4G on the way. You stated:
2G, 3G, 3.5G, who cares.
This sounds like someone that has not had the luxury of watching TV on their phone, or making VoIP calls from their phones, surfing the web, streaming video, etc..... Google offers nothing new that I can not do now. I get all of those feature for the low, low equivalent price of $30. Not to mention a QoS thrown in. Google can't match this. While this might be all the rage in the US, Google and the ad driven revenue model will have a hard time in Europe.
