List of UMTS networks

List of UMTS networks

Beginning in 2003 under the name 3, Hutchison Whampoa, a large port operator, has gradually launched their startup UMTS networks worldwide including Australia, Austria, Denmark, Hong Kong, Italy, United Kingdom, Ireland and Sweden.

Operators are starting to sell mobile internet products that combine 3G and Wi-Fi in one service. Laptop owners are sold a UMTS modem and given a client program that detects the presence of a Wi-Fi network and switches between 3G and Wi-Fi when available. Initially Wi-Fi was seen as a competitor to 3G, but it is now recognised that as long as the operator owns or leases the Wi-Fi network, they will be able to offer a more competitive product than with UMTS only. Nokia predicted that by the end of 2006 one sixth of all cellular phones would be UMTS devices.
