Why would 5G only be 100mbps? That's 1/3 of LTE's theoretical peak download rate. LTE-Advanced, actual 4G by ITU's standard, has theoretical peak down rate of 1gbps.
Of course HSPA+ is not LTE. Who said it was? This is clearly about AT&T expanding its LTE service not HSPA+. Maybe you should relearn how to read? Also, both LTE and HSPA+ are 'evolved 3G'. LTE-Advanced is actual 4G.
Frequency bands for GSM are different between what European carriers generally use and what US/Candian carriers use because of previus spectrum allocation. Hence why GSM phones have to support mutilple bands if they want to be useful. This is no different with LTE. There are sets of bands that can be used but an LTE chip is not necessarily required to support them all just as a GSM chip doesn't necessarily have to support all bands. Finally, yes, LTE is an ITU standard.
Because it's stupid to have cell coverage in vast swathes of uninhabited areas? Most people don't want to pay more just so the peaks of the Rocky Mountains and the entire Death valley desert can have LTE coverage.
It's no less compatible than GSM which requires your chip to support the bands used by the telecom. It's more compatible than the CDMA/GSM divide which require separate chips. LTE just needs one but obviously must have wide frequency band support to be useful just like world phones have to support multiple GSM bands.
The thing is that the same people whining about HSPA+ being called 4G will now have to say that calling LTE as 4G is false advertising due to ITU's final standardization. Only LTE-Advanced is officially 4G. In the end this all just useless pedantry.
No, you pay no extra for 4G. Their data plans don't discriminate between whether your data usage is 3G or 4G. You jst buy a block of data amount. AT&T has plenty of things it can be ragged on for so there is no need to make shit up.
First, they were using the term 4G before ITU. Secondly, ITU revised things just last year once again such that even LTE is not 4G according to them. Only LTE-Advanced and WirelessMAN-Advanced are now officially 4G.
No, most users will just go to the next user-friendly social network that works like Facebook. They aren't going to go to anything like Diaspora. This is nothing but nerd fantasy.
Because most people don't care? Yes, if you are sharing highly personal information on Facebook that is a dumb idea, but Facebook doesn't force you to do so.
Yeah, if not for that pesky little fact that most of people's Facebook friends are their real-life friends and famly. Very few people are the attention whores who friends every and anyone.
How was it considered absurd in the 80s to think non-geeks would be using computers? The 80s was all about making home compurs for the masses. It was in fact NOT considered an absurd idea.
Hey Bennet your link is about it Diaspora becoming a community project not about opening the source code. Since, you know, it's was already open source and on Github.
Yes, it can. How do you think Intel's compiler integrates into Visual Studio? You just need to write the plugin for integration and make custom build rules.

No, he says they go to one place which is, you know, the opposite of your scenario.

So malpractice only exists in socialized health care systems? Otherwise I don't see what point your trying to make.
And here is the source since I forgot the link.
Yes, but your phone would have to have an chip that supports all the frequency bands.

Has T-Mobile gotten rid of the 5GB cap where after you get throttled?
No, it doesn't considering that most Facebook users don't care. You are projecting.

No, the home computer was being created for the masses not for geeks. You are rewriting history

They claim to have a couple hundred thousand users.

As opposed to the idiotic corporate bureaucrats in charge of private health care?
Burden of proof is on the one making the positive claim. There are zero double-blind studies showing any effectiveness to homeopathy.
No, you just pay him in a currency of significantly diluted value. Zimbabwe dollars should work since they are worth about .0017 GBP each.
