Three seem to have throttled my "up to 3.6Mbps" download to 300kb/s, and the upload to 20kbps. Broadband my arse.

Noone uses mobile TV or video calls amd mobile broadband isn't as quick as they claim.

It'll probably be a while till you see 21Mb/s phones. The first device that Telstra demonstrated was a Sierra Wireless data card. That's where the 21Mb/s and 42Mb/s market is. It's for wireless broadband, not downloading ringtones.
