Dean,
Based on your comments, you apparently either have not read thoroughly the above statement or you have and simply do not understand it. The alternative, I suppose, is that you do not have any idea what you are talking about. I read your blog and it offers no more information than you posted here. I was hoping that you just missed something but that does not seem to be the case. Yes, there has been some discontinuity between the American providers but that is because they are different companies with different ideas. What you perceive to be a screw up is really a free competitive market that has not yet standardized on many levels. The 3G standard is the only one that matters right now and the fact that NeuStar can circumvent the individual companies providing data access and discreetly create a layer to the network protocol is completely overlooked by your comments. Please do a bit more research before you post such nonsense. I could write a volume rebut to your statement but I feel like that would be counterproductive since most people here "get it" and you don't. Your comments show that you are both hostile toward a company having protection in the space and ignorant to the way the technology works. I would post this on your blog, but I doubt it would get through the screening process. IMO.
Don't get me wrong, I have a tremendous respect for your country and your citizens, but you are just plain wrong on many fronts here.
