I probably missed half of what you were trying to explain there, but I didn't see a good solution. Are you suggesting we should give up speed for reliability at the PHY level?

It's a choice made at the PHY level and it's a tradeoff that's a little more complex than speed vs. reliability -- mobile operation introduces special challenges, as well as operation with weak signals (satellite), as well as operation in urban areas. There's a reason why Europe has 3 distinctly different digital television standards.

  For TCP over 3G, could they just turn off reliability at the PHY level and let TCP do its thing?
