In the US there is true 4G and its called LTE or WiMax depending on the network, but i would expect uk networks to have HSPA+ as it is a minor enhancement to 3G. It's not crucial to have, it would just be nice to have the additional feature

they are certified but have not been released by any carriers yet. During testing LTE advanced was able to reach download speeds of 1GB a second and upload speeds of 500 MB a second. although those wont be speeds that are very likely to be usable or provided by networks it will be a considerable improvement to current 3G or phoney 4G network speeds

As I said, as far as a consumer is concerned, it doesn't exist yet so why worry about it. Probably current LTE devices won't be able to use it anyway.

yes i guess so ! why are the new blackberry devices being marketed by carriers as the 'first 4G blackberry's ' they aren't really. HSPA+ is a minor improvement to current 3G speeds

Because the carriers are branding HSPA+ as 4G now.
Anyway, while HSPA+ is not that much faster then 3G or HSPA, it's also not that much slower then LTE or WIMax real life speeds.
Confused yet? Lol

yes. did you read the article over at engadget about the confusion that the carriers bring on their customers. it also talked about all the confusion caused by what they decide to brand as 4G.
Which uk carriers support HSPA+ as of now ?

I'm not sure, I know Vodafone definitely does have it.
