Isn't the purpose of caming to leave the real world behind?
Wouldn't 3g 4g or even next generation g kind of be an insult to being one with nature?
This was in one of the first printings of The Homebrew Computer Club's newsletter. This was a bunch of guys hanging out in the garage (1975-1986) talking tech. Several very high-profile hackers and IT entrepreneurs emerged from its ranks, including the founders of Apple Inc.
It's one of my favorites.

I'd like to think (and
the sooner the better!)
of a cybernetic meadow
where mammals and computers
live together in mutually
programming harmony
like pure water
touching clear sky.
I like to think
(right now, please!)
of a cybernetic forest
filled with pines and electronics
where deer stroll peacefully
past computers
as if they were flowers
with spinning blossoms.
I like to think
(it has to be!)
of a cybernetic ecology
where we are free of our labors
and joined back to nature,
returned to our mammal brothers and sisters,
and all watched over
by machines of loving grace.
Machines of Loving Grace is also a pretty good band from the early 90's
