Vodafone rolling out 14.4Mbps mobile broadband

Vodafone rolling out 14.4Mbps mobile broadband

vodafone-logoVodafone is priming 14.4Mbps mobile broadband for all its UK 3G punters, after successfully trialling the super speedy solution in London, Liverpool and Birmingham. So what does it mean if you’re a Voda fan? Read on and we’ll tell you.


Serving up 14.4Mbps mobile broadband takes web on the move to the next level. Vodafone reckons its new offering will let 80 percent of you rocking 3G blowers or dongles upgrade with no fuss and at no extra cost. It all means accessing web pages lick spit, as well as RSS hurtling along at a tidy speed too.


Realistically, 14.4Mbps will only be achievable in the most rare of cases. In fact, the top average speed will be about 10Mbps. That’s still far faster than most HSDPA connections you’ll find these days.


The great thing is that Vodafone’s move into 14.4Mbps should see its mobile rivals pile in and start fighting for top spot. And you’ll be the winner. Who knows? Maybe that home broadband you’ve got will soon be a thing of the past.
