This is a bogus article. CDMA 2000 3G phones that are referred to as 2.5G operate at the same (if not higher) speeds that this phone does (~144 kbps). There are plenty of 3G-1XRTT capable phones available from SprintPCS and Verizon and those companies have networks that support 3G-1XRTT - that's right 3G-1XRTT at full 3G-1XRTT speeds! So to say that this piece of junk Nokia is the first 3G capable phone is a fallacy.
