> W810i 3G Software?
Bookmark topic
I took my wife to the vodafone shop and got her a shiny new W900 phone with 3g software.
The guy in the shop had the same phone and explained to her that the phone had 3G software and showed her the live streaming television.
I perked up and said i have the W810i and asked whether it also had 3G software. He said yes that my phone is definately got 3G enabled but couldn't tell me if it is capable of live TV streaming as with the W900i.
Does anyone here know the answer to this?
Can my W810i also watch streaming TV as it is also 3G compatible?
If so what software do i need to download to enable this?

Yes you can, but not as fast as 3G phones with a strong edge signal you can watch or listen to live streaming

how ruuuude.
just phoned orange and asked if my phone will support 3G and they said no because my sim card doesn't support it!
i asked how much to upgrade my service plan and get a new sim card that will alow 3G streaming and they want £ 450!!!

the w810 doesnt support 3G, it supports edge which is gprs but a lickle bit faster, but not as fast as 3g. dont know who if anyone supports edge in the uk.
3g is not a 'software' thing anyway
orange/voda chaps are talking lies.

Thank you for clarifying i dont know a lot about this as you may have gathered lol.
And yer does sound like the people at Vodafone and Orange don't know what they are talking about either...it's their job to know, is that not what they are paid for?...idiots lol
Cheers guys

thanks guys.
shocking,
just phoned Orange again and got put from person to person, managed to speak to three people and not one of them had even heard of edge let alone know whether orange supports it.
