Here in Finland you need to really work hard to find an area where 3G isn't available.

While the same thing is true in Sweden, the real problem is insane roaming charges. I also spend time in Not Sweden, and while 3G is ubiquitous there as well it is stupidly expensive to use. If someone offered an unlimited data plan the covered most of Europe, I'd be happy with no wifi, but until then WiFi is rather handy, and I'm loath to buy a phone without it.
