3G due in Baltimore

[KidEgo]

So, I live in the Baltimore area, and if everyone has been reading the news around here, you would of seen that Baltimore was a market that was supposed to go live on the 18th of August for T-mobile. Well, it has not.

I have the Nokia 6263 as well for a backup phone that is 3G capable on T-mobile. As is the phone is incapable of of manually switching between dual mode, UMTS, or GSM. if the firmware is re-installed by Nokia (there version, not T-Mo's) the capability is alive. I switched over to UMTS the last two days to check it out, and it's not there! ****!

So, to get to the end of the long winded story, anyone have any info on what's happening with the T-Mo 3G market?

I'm getting an iPhone 3G for Christmas and was just wondering what's the difference between the wireless and the 3G features on it? With 3G, can you go on the internet while your out and you don't need a connection. Whereas with wireless, you can only use it at home with a wireless router?

Stevie, from what I understand, you nailed the differences. Wireless internet browsing is restricted to hot-spots whereas 3G networking allows you more freedom and areas to use the internet capabilities on your phone.
