As a consumer/small business person, my limited experience with my sony ericsson P910 on the web was that it was so painfully slow that it equated to dire emergency use only and I have never been able to check my hotmail. 3G has been around in Asia for years now. Knowing that 3G is coming and that Blackberry is coming out with a device, I skipped the Pearl and the Curve and have been waiting. And my wait is nearly over. So if I am any measure of the pent up demand then yes it is very important for these companies.
