2/3/4/5G refer to "Generation"; for 2G the technology was GPRS, for 3G it refers to UMTS, EDGE, W-CDMA and HSPA technologies, and for 4G it refers to Mobile WiMAX and LTE. These are a bit tougher for marketing than 2/3/4/5G, as I'm sure you can imagine. I'm not sure what the tech behind 5G is (yet), still seems in flux.
