With the population density and geography, I would of thought that WIFI coverage would be more useful to the local populus and with that with WIFI and 2G you would in effect something better than 4G.
I also wonnder with close proximity to other countries that the area would in parts be able to latch onto external network signals without a signal booster of any form.
I know North Koreans will often go near teh CHinese border to latch onto a Chinese mobile signal for use for short calls so they can speak privately independant of their governments ears.
Still, many parts of the World still to get upto 3G standard and with that, one wonders if they will get marketed old 3G cell kit that is redundant and not upgradable to later standards as todays models can do with just a code update.
