4G connection available in Scandinavia

New wireless connection platform is now to be adapted in Scandinavia and make this country to be the first that adapts an LTE (Long Term Evolution) cellphone network. This new technology will be switched on in Oslo and Stockholm, Norway, by TeliaSonera which plans to roll out nationwide 4G across Sweden, Norway and Finland.

Only a Samsung Kalmia modem USB dongle (Model GT-B3710) that capable to receive the 4G bandwidth of LTE, but handsets are planned for the New Year. 4G connection theoretically has a download speed up to 10 times of 3G connection, or 100Mbps, though realistically it would only be a fraction of that (still way better than 3G).

By now, only a modem that can connect to this connection means smartphone users can only feel the speed of 4G by next early year in Scandinavian countries. What about Asia and America? Verizon of the US and Japan's NTT DoCoMo are now preparing to unveil this new wireless connection.
