Hmm, hadn't heard about that, or even thought about it until now, but yeah bandwidth would result in some pretty big lag issues I think. Telephone systems are grossly outdated anyway. Oddly enough, ham radio in and of itself isn't outdated :D. Anyway, I suppose it'd take stuff that doesnt' require a lot of data, like an online turn based RPG or whatever sort of minigames N-Gage is using there, to make use of it I suppose.
Ya know, when the price finally drops to around $50 or less like the poor Virtual Boy did just before it blinked out, I might just pick one up JUST to have one :D.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
