Better coverage in rural areas.
In Australia, a certain network company advertises that they cover 97% of the population with coverage in their area.
The problem is, in Australia, 80% of the population is within 1% of the area. That means, 16 million people are residing within 7,600 square kilometres.
They say that 97% of the population has coverage. But out of that 97%, 17% is in the outback.
By mathematical terms, nearly 85% of Australia is not covered by this network. That is 6.46 million square kilometres.

I’m not saying that mobile technology hasn’t come far in the last few years, geez i’m suprised they haven’t attached a kitchen sink to one yet. Here in Australia, when you look at it from the larger scale, something has to be done.

All the upgrades and new features of every mobile are unique and essential in their own way and i’m glad to have them. But what use are they when you are stranded in the middle of nowhere, with no food or water, 200kms from anywhere, with a mobile, which has no reception, that can tell you exactly where to go…if you had coverage.
