Today, in AU, we have 1800MHz, soon we'll have other frequencies when

In a way, it is amazing that international 3G phones work so well. Somehow governments from around the world managed to agree on 4 standard set of frequencies.

Maybe one day something will be similar for 4G, will believe it when it happens.

And of course the whole NSA set of problems is something else to
consider. Perhaps we need to switch over to Firefox Mobile OS. Android
has it's problems as does iOS ... need I say more?

It will be really interesting to see what happens with Firefox Mobile OS.

There will always be trade-offs, e.g. if you want you phone to receive email automatically, that implies it will be connecting to a remote server, and that remote server can log your IP address.
