blackbarry on 3 network Uk?

Hi
I would like to ask you if anyone here have tried the Blackberry Bold 9000 on 3 mobile network?

How is the internet access?

I would like to ask you if the 3G network,(in london) is it fast / good?

and I have heard that 3 has really bad reception as well?

any other comments ?

thanks

Re: blackbarry on 3 network Uk?

Had my Blackberry Bold on 3 for nearly 2 months now, absolutely love it. No problems whatsoever. I live just outside London but work there often with no problems using the phone.
Suppose its what I was used to before the blackberry (N95) took me a while to get used to it, but email etc is great

Re: blackbarry on 3 network Uk?

All Blackberries receive their Internet access (compressed) via RIM so it should be a much of muchness provided you are in an area with good data coverage.

For best performance with the Bold, change the mobile network options to 3G only rather than 2G and 3G.
