Ericsson and 3 Italia Complete HSPA Commercial Implementation
Ericsson and 3 Italia have successfully established enhanced HSPA mobile-data connections in a commercial network. The enhanced HSPA technology enables maximum uplink data rates of 5.8Mbps and a significant reduction in network latency.
The faster uplink will provide an improved consumer experience in areas such as video conferencing, uploading user-generated content and sending e-mails with attachments, and better performance for interactive online gaming.
No words on the availability date for consumer though.
