I was excited when GPRS became available here in the US, and it's still better than nothing (although if a hotspot is available, I'll pay $7 or so a day to use it).

It is a modern technological eqivelant of the swiss army knife, and like the famous knife it is the sum of its parts, and not the individual featues that make it cool.
