I'm not entirely sure of the terms but I think WiMax is nothing to do with GSM/Edge, etc. WiMax is like the competitor to LTE.

Yeah thats definitely true, couldnt remember when 3g phones debuted, let alone texting!
VodafoneNZ launched 3G (UMTS) with the V600 and V800.
Bellsouth phones could txt because they used a digital network unlike the 025 Telecom analogue network. Txting took off after Vodafone expanded the network and Telecom were caught with obselete technology. They initially tried to compete by using a 15s voicemail message but it sucked, everyone including me switched to Vodafone and Telecom had to upgrade to CDMA. Too late though because many of us former Telecom users never went back...

Ah the memories of sending my first text messages from a phillips twist (single line scrolling text haha!)......
It was 1999 when Prepay first arrived
And seriously who would ask Elemeno P about sound quality? Does that not strike you guys as some kind of cruel irony?

Hahaha that's good point! Personally I can't stand Elemeno P or 99% of NZ music.

Awesome, I'll put those in, thanks. I was just waiting on confirmation on which ones you had. I knew you had an X1 but wasn't sure if you were still using it.

Wel so far in 2009, I have noticed a lot of new mobile phone masts going up all round the place. By the looks of things, NZ comms is putting them any old place, and telecom is putting their new ones next to their old CDMA ones

I haven't noticed any down here in Chch to be honest...
@Soane28: A while ago I said that I thought I saw the Renoir being advertised by Telecom. Sorry to disappoint you but I saw the same ad again tonight and had a closer look. It was a Samsung Omnia, not an LG. Sorry!

Oh dam! Oh well, ive decided that if i dont like the LG i will sell up and get the C905. Ive had a really close look at every review i can get my hands on and ive watched hundreds of youtube videos of it so i think im making the right decision (fingers crossed).
Cant say ive seen any myself either!
