Subject: [access-uk] Apple iPhone - 3G sensitivity
Hi there.
Well, a couple of weeks ago I took the plunge and got an iPhone on
contract with Orange.
I actually quite like lots of things about it and, after the learning
curve, am pretty adept at using it - though will need to build up the
typing speed. I've been using WiFi.
Due to an admin issue, I've not been able to use 3G on it until a couple
of days ago. And now I'm terribly disappointed. I used to get fantastic
web access on my old Nokia N82 but, the journey into work on the East
Anglia line gives me no internet for 95% of the journey using iPhone.
So. Does anyone know anything about this? Are Apple iPhones known for
not being able to pick up 3G as well as Nokia phones?
Even at home, when I do get a web page, even a page optimised for
mobile, it's taking almost a minute for the page to render. And when I
take the sim out and use my old Nokia, it works beautifully and
downloads a page in less than 2 seconds.
Any experiences on this appreciated. I've effectively gone and thrown
away my daily newspaper on the commute into London and am really quite
distressed about it.
Oh and what likelyhood getting the iPhone exchanged at Carphone
Warehouse? It's been less than 2 weeks now.
