StarHub has now made an official announcement that it will make HSPA+ available with Huawei in Singapore. This makes StarHub the very first operator in Asia-Pacific to have a mobile broadband network capable of speeds of up to 21Mbps. Also, StarHub’s customers will be among the first in the world to experience the fastest mobile broadband speed and superior services through devices provided by Huawei.
HSPA+ increases StarHub’s mobile broadband network capacity to support speeds of up to 21Mbps, from 14.4Mbps previously. HSPA+ is now emerging as a contender for eclipsing the need for WiFi to a great degree, and also challenging WiMax and LTE.

Here is info about one very ordinary mobile phone – nothing to make your heart rate or anything of the kind. LG’s latest offering, the LG GB210 is your usual highly boring candybar phone that will just about handle the bare basics that a mobile phone should.
The LG GB210 has a 1.77” display, 1.3MP camera, Bluetooth, MP3 player, FM radio and microSD slot. This model is slated for Ukraine and we do not expect it will move out from this territory. The upside is that this thing costs a mere 950 UAH or about $118. Check out the pic below.
