Whoa, where have you been the last few years?

3G - Stands for the 3rd generation of mobile phone technology. It basically means faster GPRS data transfer over the network (so faster mobile internet). HSDPA basically is even faster 3G.

WiFi - Is wireless broadband internet. Sometimes known as WLAN. Basically you can buy a router and can transmit a signal across a small area, allowing devices that are WiFi capable to connect and use the internet without wires.

HSCSD - Put simply, HSCSD is faster network speeds. It is uncommon because GPRS is usually cheaper, so most networks use that instead.

Accelerometer - This is basically a feature which tells the phone what way up you are holding the phone. Eg. It knows when you are holding the phone upside-down or sideways, or it can sense you shaking your phone. So then the phone can change what is displayed on the screen to suit what way up the phone (or any device with an accelerometer) is being held. On some Walkman phones and iPods, you can shake the device to shuffle songs. The accelerometer can be applied to other uses too, like games where you move the phone to play.

I have given you very simple explanations here. It should help you understand it, but I'll just let you know that each of these are a lot more complicated and detailed than what I have said.
