This is disgraceful. The iPad on Telstra's HSPA+ Dual Carrier 4G network achieves real-world speeds of 20mbps (theoretical 42mbps).
However, Vivid Wireless who uses 4G WiMax gets away with having a top speed of only 5mbps around Australia and yet can still call their service 4G. The International Telecommunications Union (ITU) defines HSPA+ DC as 4G and yet the ACCC has carried through with this utterly foolish suite. How is this in the Public Interest? Tall Poppy syndrome at it's worst.
