couple of years late but Cristina is accepting international bribes proposals for 4g in Argentina.

Hmmmm, _ 59 million mobile phone lines had been sold, of which 76 percent were currently active._

And what is the total population of this grand nation?

 

[Sleuth]

Let's see how used up this becomes... 3G is almost useless here.

circa 40 million, total as of the 2010 census. Current estimate (2013) is 41 million and a bit

3G doesn't work properly, what do you want 4G if it's going to be the same?

 

[Alicia karr]

They said it will take up to four years to complete the transition. By that time the rest of the world will be on what, 6G?

Even in BsAs the 3G network is far from developed; can't see why a company should decide to make such a huge investment in a market like the one here...

Perhaps a domestically produced and maintained network of carrier pigeons would be a better solution for Argentina, and very nac y pop. Just think how green you'd feel! After all, there are plenty of pigeons in BsAs, you could kill two birds with one stone.

 

[thorsten]

I can see the advantages of this proposal, but if you kill the two birds with one stone, you will get disconnects

4G mobile network, modern train connection to Chile ... How long have I been sleeping? What year is it?
