O2 7.2mbps 3G?

[wazza12345]

Folks, just wondering whether we'll actually get to use the new speeds of the 3GS in the UK? Does O2 have these speeds supported already? Anyone know what coverage is like?

Apparently it is 1.8 MBPS now. http://forum.o2.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=7304&sid=22cde97f7fe3aa26aa0afdd31aba194d
Don't know when they're upgrading to 3.6, or 7.2 though, as I'm not in the UK.

Appears since june 08 its now 3.6.. but 7.2 is no where to be found?!

7.2mbps atm is only readily available in areas of London.

Oh that's good, I live in London

At least they have started the ball rolling on 7.2.. that's a positive sign.

checking that link above, looks like the whole of nottingham is purple.. ie, has HSDPA coverage!!

quite positive that

EDIT: O2's HSDPA is mostly 3.6mbs not 7.2!!like a poster said above, 7.2 is only available in certain parts of london and hopefully they'll roll out further afield
