As you may know by now, 3G isn’t in my area. This is slightly frustrating since I happen to OWN an iPhone 3G. Tonight, as I was driving home, I decided to turn 3G on just for giggles. The result: No Service. Not just no 3G, no GSM at all. So then, I flipped 3G off and found that I was able to be on EDGE with full service.
Thinking that it was just a hiccup, I turned the 3G back on to find, again, No Service. Being the Tweethead that I am, I turned it off, Tweeted it, and then flipped 3G on again (still No Service).
The fact that I had no service had nothing to do with my area not having 3G. I am currently sitting in my room, approximately 12 miles away from where I tweeted that I didn’t have service, and I have 3 bars with 3G on…I’m not picking up 3G of course, I’m on EDGE.
My prognosis? 3G is coming. How do I guess that? About 15 minutes away from that same spot is Wildwood, which has 3G. So, my speculation is: if you don’t have 3G in your area, thanks to the iPhone 3G, it’ll be coming soon.
ps: I did make sure that I was at a complete stop while I tweeted…TwD is dangerous, although I don’t reprimand it.
oh, please, colin.
you tweet and drive alllllllll the time.
and you are RARELY at a complete stop while doing so.
half the time you’re going 80mph on the turnpike. hardly at a complete stop.
pfft.
