Nokia demonstrates high-performance HSDPA connection
Nokia and MobileOne demonstrated its live mobile data connection that supports a transmission rate of up to 3.6Mbps at the Nokia Connection event in Singapore. This development in High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) could deal a fatal blow to WCDMA 3G networks that are noticeable slower. The 3.6Mbps is roughly double of today’s HSDPA data rate and will be commercially available from Nokia at the end of this month. For existing WCDMA 3G subscribers, they have to perform a simple software upgrade to take advantage of Nokia’s high-performance HSDPA service.
