Im going to say we dont have DAB here the only things we have are AM/FM HD and SAT. SAT has been around for a few years (xmradio.com) and HD is the new thing just coming out over here.

Thanks smeg36. So it looks like it will at least be of use as a router if not a modem too.

I think this is my final question now: unsure.gif

I've got a 'normal' radio that picks up FM / AM and short wave that I'm going to take with me. I've also got a 'digital' (DAB) radio. Is it worth taking the digital one to the states, or have they not yet got a digital radio system, or perhaps already have a system that's incompatible?

Cheers guys

So sounds like i'm knackered for a short term solution?

I'd really like to be able to push mail while i'm out there sad.gif

no you will be able to get a go phone with unlimited internet for min. $50 (US) or spend $30 (US) and pay $.01 (US) per kilobite although i dont know how that would work on a pay as you go phone. they have other plans too where you can pay for 1mb, 5mb and so on.

It's the Cingular name for internet, but I'm not certain if it can be used on a Smartphone or PPC Phone. On their contract plans you have to have either the Smartphone Connect or Data Connect plan for Windows Mobile devices. I wonder if the MEdia Net can be adapter for WM like T-Zones on T-Mobile is. Additionally, do they allow access to EDGE or UMTS/HSDPA with the prepaid plans?

MEdia Net is the internet for intents and puroposes the only thing i cant do with it is istablish a VPN as they have those ports blocked. I have it on my 8125, Wizard. the data connect is unrestricted access as in you can use VPN. i establish connections wih my laptop and surf the net thre it all the time and i have nvr told me im using to much. my monthly average on MEdia Net is 50 megs. So if you want internet for your phone get the unlimited MEdia Net for $20 (US) and yes it is EDGE, i think it might even be 3G but as i dont have a capable device (nor is it in my home town but it is in the town about 30 min away) i have not been able to test it.

Personally, I'd recommend getting the SERO plan on Sprint if you're planning on remaining in the US for the duration. It's CDMA, I know that must be difficult for you to consider. BUT with the SERO plan you get 500 anytime minutes, free nights and weekends starting at 7PM, and unlimited EVDO data (the CDMA equivalent to HSDPA speed-wise) all for $30/month. The downside is the only WM devices Sprint offers right now are the PPC-6700 (CDMA HTC Wizard variant), Treo 700wx, and Motorola Q. That's my $0.02.


Sprint has gone down hill in a bad way in CA. There service coverage sucks but there internet is really good (when you have service). i had a friend who was on sprint and i switched him over to Cingualr and he loves it. i think when you get here you will see that most of your co workers and friends will all be on cingular or if there getto, Cricket, tongue.gif

QUOTE(adamw @ Apr 24 2007, 18:23) *
I'm very tempted just to get prepaid to start with and see how it goes. The cingular thing looks a good deal on that. Just to make 100% sure I understand - my imate jamin will work on cingular, won't it??

thanks again guys smile.gif

As long as your phone is networked unlocked then yes you will be able to slide the gsm chip in the phone and it will work. if for what ever reason you go with Sprint or verizon then no you will need a new phone.

OK lets try this post again.

I have 3 phones on my account with two of them having unlimited Internet, and i pay $150 (US). i go threw Cingular/ATT. if your going to be in CA then i would suggest you go with either Cingular or T-mobile as they both have the same coverage cus they use the same towers. i do think that cingulars customer service is a lot better, i have never had a complaint about them nor have i ever spoken to someone who's primary language wasn't English. I would also suggest that if your going to be here for 2 years plus that you just go ahead and get into a contract and get a new phone. Right now Cingular is in the process of rolling out 3G to all site and should be done at the end of 2008. Right now we have EDGE almost everywhere and GPRS where ever you can get service. Just to give you an example i once burnt out the phone cus i was streaming http://www.DI.FM on my phone from the Central Valley to Las Vegas (380 miles or 680 Kilometers). It gave up the ghost @ the 1/2 mark on the way back, i think there was about a 30 min stretch were i wasn't able to listen to the music cus the reception sucked.

Paul i do believe that Cingular can get you Internet for a month on a pay as you go phone. The cheapest go plan with unlimited Internet is going to cost you $50 (US) so i don't know if you would find that worth it as there are all sorts of unsecured wireless networks around and you could just as easily go war-driving and get on the net that way.

If i can be any more help let me know.
