   But radio spectrum is a finite resource. And quite an expensive one, too.   
      
   That 3G communication requires radio bands that could be more efficiently   
   redeployed for 4G or 5G.   
      
   Sure, you want to continue using a 3G device. Can you afford to pay for   
   the spectrum needed to satisfy your use?
