It's strange how everything related to to mobile networks is meh or bad in the US.
tbray and others think it's the technology they are analyzing when it's actually how operators adopt the technology that makes the difference. It must be market power issue. Operators just do the minimum possible coverage they can get away with.

Over the past decade or two, coverage and speeds have increased a ton and prices have stayed low. Carriers are spending billions on new spectrum and an ever increasing build out of cell sites.
