    Default My phones using Edge?


    It says E up top and I live in a G3 area because I live in New Hampshire and NH is part of New England. So do I have to turn it on manually?

    Lol, its 3G, and it should be in the wireless or networking settings. Just stare at your manual if you need help. While I sit here and cry that I don't have mine yet.

    So I've got a question..I live in Canada, so I'll be using a Rogers simcard on an unlocked G1 I plan on buying later this month. I don't really want data so I won't be upgradng my plan.

    So I was wondering I put my simcard into the phone, turn it on and I know you have to enter your google info, does it give you and option to do that over Wi-Fi?

    Also..Does GPS need data or ..?

    Me too. Some spy satellite is going to trip out when it sees an abnormal # of people sitting in on their porches regardless of weather for no apparent reason.
