Version 1.0 - 3G possibility??

I'm guessing this has been asked and answered - probably a gazillion times - but is the supposed absence of 3G in the current iPhone reality??
There were a TON of rumors out there that said that the current iPhone DID have 3G in it - as just needed firmware to be "unlocked." (Kinda like the wireless-N in my MBP)
Is is a "for-sure" thing that it DOESN'T exist in the current iPhone??

Allan, isn't this a little like saying a Ferrari is faster than a Prius? While completely true, it's also quite an understatement!
Hey! Woz was recently clocked at 105 in a Prius! And a Ferrari tops around 180, so the difference is not as large as between EDGE and 3G.
I have a 3G aircard. The best EDGE has ever done for me is 220 kbps, but it is typically around 100 and sometimes as low as 40. The slowest 3G has been is 450 kbps and that is for a very weak signal. With 4 or more bars it is around 1 Mbps, and I have gotten as high as 1.6 Mbps. So the difference is quite substantial.
I also travel a lot, and 3G is NOT available outside of "major" cities and surrounds. Not available in rural areas at all, and some places you might expect it there's no coverage (Denver, for example; actually not anywhere in Colorado or New Mexico). So I don't miss 3G on the iPhone all that much.
BTW, 3G is a generic term that includes a lot of different technologies. AT&T's flavor specifically is HSDPA, which is becoming the worldwide standard. So in a few years you will want a 3G phone, but right now it will only be useful in a few major markets.
best,
Larry

    The minimum version required for Viber is 3.1, though it is always important to stay up to date. Why is it that you do not want to download the latest version?

  • Netweaver 7.01 ABAP Trial Version - External Call Into Possible?

    I am trying to do any kind of external call into the Netweaver 7.01 ABAP Trial Version.
    Is it possible with either VS 2003 using the .NET Connector or even via a web service call to a BAPI?
    Here are my results in both technologies:
    1 - Deplaying a BAPI as a Web Service - Receive Error Message Object Director R3TR WEBI does not exist.
    (Note: Also when trying to acces SOAMANAGER, I receive a 500 Connection Time-Out Error Web page).
    2- VS2003 using the .net Connector - When I try to list the BAPIs, I receive the error message "Open file c:\windows\sapmsg.ini failed".
    Note: All services have been enabled in SICF.

    And which problem was? And how you solved it?
    Because im trying to acces SOAMANAGER and it starts loading but it never finishies. IE says waiting for reply...

  • View an Interactive PDF, but print from a print PDF version....possible?

    We are in the process of creating interactive PDF catalogs (basic stuff, product sheets, charts, etc...) for our clients. The catalog has a tab navigation on the outside edges (to the different sections) as well as a button navigation system across the bottom  (zoom, home, next page, print, etc...). On the screen, it looks great, but to print it, well, isn't as great.
    So, my question is... is it possible to have the INTERACTIVE PDF print function access a PRINT version of the same PDF, so that the client's customers can get a clean version that can be inserted into a binder, without all the navigation and tabs? The information needed is technical and accessed fairly often by the customers, usually without the benefit of having a computer or pad around to access the PDF.
    I had seen this question earlier on the forums, but, I couldn't find it again, nor was the question answered.
    I appreciate the help.
    Thanks
    Chuck

    Yes you will have to export layers from InDesign. but there's an important caveat - the 'print' layer options checkbox in InDesign does not translate into OCG printability in the PDF - it is used to set  visibility in the exported PDF, but every layer in the PDF will use the default 'print when visible' setting. You'll have to reconfigure them in Acrobat after export.

  • When I clos Firefox 4.0 having multiple tabs open, Ff does not ask to store those tabs to open them the next time I start Ff. In the old version 3.* that possibility was there.

    When I closed Ff in version 3.*, Ff asked me if the open tabs should be stored to ben opened the next time. So I never lost my session.
    In Ff 4.0.1 that question is not asked. So I lose all open pages in all tabs.
    What can I do to get that possibility in Ff 4.*?

    Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
    If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
    # Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
    If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
    # Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
    # Go to the General panel
    # Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

  • Special Version: Copy of content possible?

    Hi colleagues,
    In our BCS project we need to copy the content of a special version (hierarchy structure of consolidation units). Is it possible?
    It seems, when copying the special version in the workbench (definition) it only copies the version but not the content.
    Thanks,
    Rainer.

    confused on this. one book allows me to cut n paste. another book does not allow the function.
    does anyone know of a way to copy and paste all the time from i books?
    n.b.  ["nota bene"]: cut n paste is for references. for example a literary work uses some wonderful words and I need a definition from OED, not apple's dictionary. Iwant to cut n paste for efficiency. how to to do?

  • RoboHelp HTML Version 11 - Is it possible to generate Word document if I have Word 2013 64-bit?

    I have tried creating Printed Documentation with Word 2013 64-bit version installed and have gotten error messages. Is there a work around? Is this possible.

    This one has been raised several times and it's the same answer still. A project might work with Word 2013 64 bit but if it doesn't then you have to take into account that Microsoft themselves recommend the 32 bit version for compatibility with other programs.
    Is the 64 bit version offering you something that the 32 bit version does not?

  • Mac version - Is there a possibility to change to the windows version?

    Hello Adobe team, 
    I bought an Adobe Creative Suite 6 Master Collection as "Student and Teacher Edition" for MAC in 2013. I am now working in a pure Windows environment and would like to exchange the product in a Windows version. Alternatively, I could also imagine to sell my software and to use the cloud version. What are my options?   1. Is there a possibility to change to the windows version?   2. Is it allowed to sell the “Student and Teachers Edition”? And if so, only to students and teachers?   THANKS for the help! The software was quite expensive ...

    2. Is it allowed to sell the “Student and Teachers Edition”?
    No. The whole point of the special licensing is that it's meant to support people in education or else the low price wouldn't exactly make sense - if everyone just bought used edu licenses, Adobe would bankrupt in a predictable timeframe.
    1. Is there a possibility to change to the windows version?

  • Higher Track version as NWDI itself possible?

    Hi,
    we have currently NWDI Netweaver 7.0 SP14.
    Is it possible to use this NWDI version to manage a track which is Netweaver SP18 based?
    Thanx, Andi Lorinser

    Well,
    after the discussion I'm a bit confused.
    What I heared so far: we should always use a NWDI-Installation, which is very joung, let's say NW7.0/SP18. Then Tracks should be managable, even if their code is older (let's say SP14).
    And now my question. What if we have the other way round?
    We have currently NWDI SP14 on our Portal DEV - Server and, before we upgrade, we must already prepare some jounger software tracks (e.g. SP18) before we upgrade NWDI itself. Is this allowed or not?
    Thanx A.Lorinser

  • Hi, iTunes 11.1 don't tell me the duration of two or more tracks from the same album, which iTunes 10. did. How come? It is possible that the new version lacks such a possibility? Thanks

    Hi, thanks to whoever will be able to respond - which the Apple assistance on line in Italy could not do, after minutes of conversation!
    The point is that I cannot see anymore the total duration of two or more audio tracks selected from the same CD, but only the duration of the whole CD.
    With the previous version of iTunes this was very easy, as I simply clicked on the tracks the interested me and I suddenly had the total time.
    It makes no sense that Apple provides a new version which lacks one of the endless options of the program, therefore I hope it's only my faul in not being able to understand what to do. Otherwise, please tell me how can I downgrade and go back to iTunes 10....

  • Project version(current data and version data comparison not possible)

    HI,
    I am stuck up with project version we are using EHP7 and SAP HANA
    When i create the version through CN71 or CNS41 system displays message "version is saved"
    When i try to compare the same version with the current date in the same mentioned transaction codes system does not display the version data .
    secondly when i am trying to display only version system displays message version does not exists.but in tables data is saved
    In transaction code CN71 if i go to edit -->other selection versions-->enter user and press enter system displays all the saved versions for that project
    selecting the project version it is displayed only
    In the drop down list ,under VIEW--> choose project versions is also in display mode and is not editable .

    hi Sushrut,
    If the version only exists in table VSKOPF then it does not main the version is actually created. You need to check if the corresponding version data has been created in table like VSPROJ_CN, VSPRPS_CN and so on, these tables holds the real data of your versions, if there is no data in these tables, then you can't compare the data also.
    Regards,
