Samsung 3.6 MBps HSDPA Cell Phone

HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access), a 3G cell phone network, is meant to be the high speed replacement for GSM / EDGE. But maybe you didn’t realize just how high speed.
Last month Cingular launched its implementation of a HSDPA network known as BroadbandConnect. However, their initial implementation has devices delivering 400 – 700 kps.
However, Samsung will present a HSDPA phone at CES in Las Vegas that will let you surf the web at 3.6 Mbps. That’s a 4MB file in less than 10 seconds! On a cell phone! That’s comparable and in some cases faster than land-based broadband DSL and Cable Modem solutions.
Samsung’s phone is equipped with Qualcomm’s Mobile Station Modem™ (MSM™) MSM6280™ solution.
