- Hey to all Torch users, I have one quick question. I successfully unlocked my Torch as I am abroad and am using a local sim card. One thing I have noticed is that on the top screen, beside my signal strength, I'm seeing 3g (that's a lowercase g). I've seen screenshots of other Blackberry users and noticed they have 3G (capital G).
Should I be concerned about it? What are your thoughts about this. Are they basically the same? Because I've never seen here on the boards a 3G with a lowercase G. I appreciate your input on this matter guys. You're a big help!10-13-10 10:41 AMLike 0 -
- I think you're right. Because i'm on a pay as you go plan where i'm located and i don't have a data plan. So i'm assuming, if i register for a data plan, it's gona magically turn into a capital G? =)
thanks again.10-13-10 11:07 AMLike 0 -

- Well I don't know if that what all that means...(Lower case and/or upper case) I've seen upper case and lower case G's as well as "E D G E".. Right now I'm in an area what that has no 3G but I'm web browsing with the "e d g e"... plus I have a 5.99$ internet plan from 2005. Bets paying 30$... But what is data?? Internet access?
