Also an advantage to using GSM rather than 3g is that your battery will probably last a little bit longer as well.

I use it all the time, but it sounds like you probably don't.

How essential is 3g on a 6680, as changing the network from duel mode to GSM has solved my Cell info display problem, but I am willing to change it back to Duel mode if 3G is essential tom some functions on my Nokia 6680.
