The Irish Times reports that Vodafone failed to make an EUR44 million payment to Ireland's telecoms regulator on Wednesday for its 3G mobile licence, asking for a one-month delay. A Vodafone spokeswoman said the company will introduce 3G in Ireland, but there is nevertheless speculation that the company may not build a 3G network here. Rival operator O2, meanwhile, did accept its third-generation licence by the deadline of midnight on Wednesday.
