Sony wouldn't say, but if it were, and was available on Orange and/or T-Mobile, you'd be able to take advantage of high-speed, 4G connectivity this year. That's because Ofcom has given the nod to Everything Everywhere, owner of those providers, to roll out super-fast mobile broadband, using spare capacity on its existing networks. It'll be available for smartphones in the next couple of months': with dongles for tablets and laptops by the end of the year. EE won't produce a list of compatible devices yet, but models that work on an 1800 bandwidth should be compatible. This news wasn't met with rapturous applause by everyone, with all the other networks expressing shock and predicting the end of free trade as we know it. Politics aside, it is undeniably good news for the UK's bandwidth-starved punters, however.
