And he *did* refer to it as "4G", so don't fault posters here with calling it 4G and quoting dates much earlier than you argued.

aye. i don't consider the Wi-Fi extensions as a 'generation' in cellular technology. if they want to role it out as such, then i suppose it's up to them to call it by same name. however, and once again, we're alienating cellular standards for the sake of VERY little gain in speeds (2-3mpbs range real-world). in terms of cellular 4G, we'll see it implemented in Japan first, then Korea (or at the same time), then the CDMA networks here.
