Phil Cotton, Office Senior Partner at KPMG Bristol, comments on the news that 4G mobile services are being tested in Bristol, with roll out imminent:
“The launch of 4G mobile services in Bristol is great news for consumers and businesses alike as the infrastructure will provide faster connectivity and be able to better cater for growing data demands from smart phones and tablets. The new network generation should improve user experience significantly with faster download and response times, which will enable higher quality video calls, ready access to video streams and live TV, as well as live multiplayer gaming, to give just a few examples.”
“The long-awaited availability of 4G puts Bristol on the map as a leader in mobile communications. The service is expected to roll out quickly from here onwards, and will cover most of Britain by 2014, which should make wireless internet a commonplace reality for those who want it.”
