3G Phones ?

I hear people saying that the 3G phones were disappointing and ive heard some others say not. Ive stuck with the crappy Sony Ericsson T610 for ages and today I got the Nokia 6680 ( which ive gladly got a pic ), this is a 3G phone and in words I think its great !
Whats your opinion on 3G ?

3 Phones are great, (or 3G, same thing) but there seem to be ALOT of problems with them...My mum has some phone...LG...and she is on her 4th one, because there is always something wrong with the other ones...She hasnt had it more than a year!...but this new one is pretty good though...nothing wrong...

Cellphones are an inferior communucation method. They rely on power, on pylons, networks, and all of those need power as well. We ought to develop an inherant capacity for long-distance telepathic communication.

As it is, I can't offer an opinion. Cellphones are a drain on my resources I don't need, a little like the GDI Light Tank. Useful in certain situations, but generally nothing noteworthy.

The phones actually made by 3 are rigged with glitchy buggs

You started out well and I wanted to know what your solution was, then you had to end it with spam.

Damn you. Only I can do that. I challenge you to voodoo soccer turbo edition 3: the final mouse button.

There were 1G and 2G phones, but nobody called them that because it wasn't anything special.

My phone is 3G, and I like it. I don't really care though, aslong as I can text and call people, I'm happy. :)

Three is the magic number, everyone loves three! Who cares, it's only a phone, but with a three in it!!

3 is good at first as you can get the handset free
But after a while it gets expensive, really expensive

Someone once stole my handphone, and I was traumatised for years afterwards. I still am! But I have no idea if my phone is 3G. @_@ I just text and call people; good 'nuff for me! ^_^

First and second generation, from the user's point of view have very little visible difference. It's based on GSM and evolved, with gains mostly in terms of cellphone autonomy, range, and number of simultaneous users. Pre 3G phones can access basic web functionalities (wap, email), what 3G brings is an even better communication system (UMTS) that allows much higher transfer rates, thus allowing live streams of video/music on top of the previous functionalities.

I don't have a 3G phone but I love mine ^_^ Why upgrade your phone so much that it can go online and stuff? Phones are for calling...!

My friend told me it had something to do with web functions
Guess he was right
