Default Finally 3G!!

WooHoo!!!

As of today, this morning, I have 3G service in my area!!!. Been using EDGE forever only hitting 3G when I'd go 100 miles to nearest major city (am in southern OK).

Earlier today a co-worker suggested I check my phone, and low and behold 3G!!



I know it's not going to be a drastic change to my iphone life, but it's so nice to finally see it I had to share.

LOL congrats man, if you browse, update apps, get apps, music it should actually be a pretty big change because it's ALOT faster than EDGE.

Congrats man. We are supposed to be getting 3g service here soon also. I live in Tuscaloosa AL and we where supposed to get it at the end of august but the local at&t spokes person has come out and said it will be another 30 days. If we don't get it here before my 30 day trial period is over I am gonna have to get a different phone :*( no use in paying 3g data price at edge speeds ><.

That is great news wgary! Now when I come done to the games I can have 3G! SWEET!! WAR EAGLE!

@solius Tell T-Town to hurry up! I travel there quite a bit on business so need my 3G. Just ask Nick to give about a week salary to AT&T and they could have 3G all the way to Misissippi.

Just download a Speedtest app, and check speed between Edge and 3G and you will see the difference. I get about 105 on edge, and 1800 on 3G.. Yes, makes a difference!
