You're right... I was thinking of the ARM11 Tegra.
It's not just a 1GHz ARM Processor. It's a 1GHZ ARM Cortex A8.

That's over twice as fast as the 1GHz ARM11 in the Snapdragon!!

And 66% faster than the iPhone 3GS or Palm Pre.
This is WRONG.

Vodafone Australia supports 7.2Mbit HSPA on their 900MHz 3G network.
They support 3.6Mbps on their 2100MHz 3G network.
Vodafone Australia also supports 236kbps on their 900MHz EDGE network outside of the cities.

Real world Vodafone speeds exceed that of Optus and Hutchison 3. Telstra's 21Mbit HSPA network is the undisputed speed and coverage king in Australia.
Wonder when they'll start transitioning over to LTE. The base stations they are installing are capable of WiMax and LTE, so the rollout isn't all a waste.

are also in varying stages of closing their CDMA networks and switching to GSM.

Three of the above are already running their HSPA networks side-by-side. The other three are trialling LTE.

Qualcomm's preferred 4G is LTE not UWB. They own patents for both and have more to gain from rapid adoption of LTE.

UWB is only a reasonable competitor to WiMax. LTE trounces WiMax in speed, global adoption and announced carrier rollouts. It also has a strong roadmap to multi-gigabit speeds with LTE-Advanced.
"China never really adopted the DVD standard" ?????

Go to any chinese city and see the abundance of pirate DVDs on sale and the endless stacks of no-name chinese DVD players.

In fact, most DVD players available in the west are chinese DVD players rebadged with more familiar brands.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
