Explaining what 3G is
Today I had to explain in written what was 3G and how it was different with 2G. The new interest in mobile network generations is due to the fact the 3 big Russian GSM operators finally got their 3G licenses. They are going to build the networks and commercially launch them in 2008.
Most people in Russia who ever heard about 3G think that 3G is a development of GSM. They aren't aware of the fact that 3G is a generation that include various standards, namely both UMTS (the one GSM operators are going to launch in Russia) and CDMA 1xEVDO that we've already launched with Sky Link.
I think the new interest of journalists in 3G is a good way for us to promote the fact that 3G is already in Russia and anyone can try it with our company.
The text of my explanations (in Russian) is available on mir66.ru.

Hi, your explanations were in Russian, but i linked in my blog to your text translated by Google. If you got time, you may check if the translation is more or less OK?
(Anyway it seems allright to me, in spite this Russian to English is still in Beta)
