I don't have trouble getting 3G connections except when the train goes
into a tunnel. Mind you the Lon-Brum line runs parallel to the M1 for
quite a bit, so pretty decent reception most of the way.

I never have a trouble getting 3G connections at home, or in the west
country in general. The only time I have had a problem with it is when I
go to london when it seems really patchy and very slow.

Not so in my experience.

No, it means I use it a hell of a lot.

It *has* deteriorated, but I think that's because I've added a few bits
on jailbreak that run in the background. I don't think any "all things
being equal" deterioration is noticeable, at least not without
measuring.

As my 3G 18m is up in about 3 weeks I find it fasciating; many thanks
for that & Mystic Meg sees a new phone in my future when back in the
UK(*). Sadly, Mrs Gwynne doens't want an iPhone, but I assume eBay
prices are reasonable.

(*) Depending on the upgrade offers & how this "no more unlimited data"
pans out with O2. Vodafone works better with work's systems (direct
dial to any interal phone on the world), but I've always fond their
support somewhat misnamed.
