BT and O2 ink deal to build mega 4G network

4G - Why?

Why would we need 4G? to watch crap films or play pointless games or even "interact" with some no hoper who cannot make friends face to face.

What I would like is good solid voice and maybe 3G wherever I go in the UK, within 20km of Cardiff (4G in the centre) I can't even get voice on large lengths of the railway line.
