Does that mean there are 1G and 2G? If so, what ones are they?

First and second generation, from the user's point of view have very little visible difference. It's based on GSM and evolved, with gains mostly in terms of cellphone autonomy, range, and number of simultaneous users. Pre 3G phones can access basic web functionalities (wap, email), what 3G brings is an even better communication system (UMTS) that allows much higher transfer rates, thus allowing live streams of video/music on top of the previous functionalities.
My friend told me it had something to do with web functions
Guess he was right
