3G Technologies

The future for mobile wireless devices looks bright and the number of cellular mobile subscribers continues to grow rapidly. Unlike the old 2G technology based systems, the new 3G systems and the ones which are now being rolled out prior to the 4G systems, the Super 3G technologies, are data centric in nature. The Super 3G systems not only provide high data rates and quick connectivity for video applications, but they also have features that will delight the consumers, the operators and the backbone providers.

This essay presents a discussion about e-commerce and 3G technologies in an Australian and global context.
