Here in The Netherlands, GPRS is also slow on the uptake -- one guess why.
I do think action is required - in the form of consumer interaction and perhaps a website/petition. Eitherway, I do think much of it is just telcos trying to pay for 3G, and - like wap and sms - they have to be taught what the consumer wants, and how they want it.
I do think a monthly tariff is fine, but the rates have to drop by a factor of 5-10 for it to be as usable as a consumer would like it. Otherwise, I bet we'll start seeing phones with WiFi in them or it'll die on the vine.
I'd love a GPS system for my P800, but the only ones I've see so far have been ones that feed data back and forth over GPRS, and it the current costs - that might be a dealbreaker.
Applications and services will never grow otherwise...
