Reply to: iPhone 3gs - vodafone

[Xenophon]

I'm not going touch my beloved iPhone - despite sometimes patchy O2 3G coverage.

You're a brave chap, scooter. Then again, it seems that regardless of what Apple do, the Dev-Team (or others) always seem to follow up with a hack.

The trainline.com app is worth a mention me thinks...

way better than the website version. It's finds the station nearest the phone as your departure point, quite cool.

The only time I need to use it was when I was stuck on country station that had a busted ticket machine, no timetables or staff. After I put the info into the website it came up with “server error; information can not be displayed”. However in Prague a similar system works well showing the nearest tram or metro stop with times.

Have installed this little app that shows the location of the buses here in town and the number of minutes I have to drag myself outside down to the bottom of the street thereby minimising the number of minutes standing around in the cold - wow

Yeah, I got one of those. Even works in the car!

sounds like a good reason. like sound of your bus app, I've been using a gps app called Grinder which is useful although phone not robust enough to make it a Butt Plug replacement.

FTFY!

Because O2 out here in the sticks (that place north of the border) have about the same signal strength as those toymaster walkie takies my folks got me when I was a lad...

Vodafone have been around since the dark ages, there's very few spots around the wilderness where I can not get a signal.

One for each ear?

As sure as eggs is eggs you wouldn't have had any mates!

Actually I had other HAMies in the area rigged up our CB radios... we once made our own RTTY modem via the CB - that was so cool.

The girls were so impressed.

Correct. I had a firmly locked bedroom door and many stains on the ceiling...........


....the result of mixing a little bit of this a little bit of that from the chemistry set and shoving 1000 volts through the mixture.

It's a wonder I'm still alive.

Does yor web access work OK? have you simply copied yer settings from yer old phone to the shiny monster and all is well?

Web access works over 3G and the wifi, no problems so far.

Voice mail is working fine.
