In my experience, in terms of technology and pricing, North America is
still behind when compared to the mobile market in Asian and Europe.
Recently everyone is going ga-ga over the introduction of 3G in US
whereas in Singapore/Malaysia, teenagers have been using 3.5G
technology such as HSDPA for quite a while. The data pricing plan for
mobile internet and sms are also ridiculously high in NA.

Whether this has anything to do with the slower mobile adoption among
end users in NA, one can only debate. It could be socio-culture thing
as Dave mentioned above, or it could be the side effect of a hostile
mobile market.
