Interesting. The phone companies are wise and will have done their research.....are phones becoming slightly less facionable in light of tablets and other devices with decent size screens?

Given 3G gives Joe and Joanne Average more than enough bandwidth for Facebook, Twitter etc on their mobile device and most of the UK population, in terms of coverage rather than land area, have a decent broadband speed and a wireless router at home what would they gain from paying more for 4G?
Hence particularly in the current economic climate with most peoples disposable income being continually squeezed very questionable if the income would cover the outlay and generate a worthwhile return.
Another scenario is people could potentially dispense with their broadband and landline phone so overall less income to the network operators.

You can get tablets that accept sim cards .

Three have said everyone is going to get 4g on their current tariff, (handset permitting) without price rises or special packages, unlike EE who are charging a lot more for a lot less.

I think you will find it is rip-off BRITAIN, which is why the Scots want out!

The free prescriptions, university education, travel for over 60's. They are all our government spending choices. If that's what you want to spend the cash on, then vote for it!
