PDAs, Cellphones, Wireless The information that I could find on the web about Sprint's new '3G' high-speed data service was a little short on solid information, so I spoke with Kevin Packingham, Senior Manager of Business Marketing for SprintPCS' new Vision service. I sought him out because Ubiquitous, affordable high speed wireless data services are something of a holy grail for tech-savvy road warriors like myself, so I received each morsel of information about Sprint's new service with great interest. Mr. Packingham spoke over the phone and he clarified many of the questions that I had about the new service.

Without a doubt the US has a firm position as a leader within the PC market. However I believe with regard to mobile communications Japan clearly lead in technology and even with regard to general consumer electronics the Japanese lead together with Dutch and German.

I am not being chauvinistic here, as I'm not Japanese. ;)
