cliffdunedin 8 Report post Posted July 1, 2010 Hey guys, i was going to wait for the 4g to be released in a few weeks but after reading reviews have decided to go with the 3Gs...what i was wondering is whether using my wifi point or a hotspot around town will still cut into my data cap when youtubing using apps etc. chur!!

Guest Simon* Report post Posted July 1, 2010 No. My understanding is wifi will kick in wherever available and relegate 3G to the back of the queue Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3 SERIES 93 Report post Posted July 1, 2010 ^^ Correct. If wifi is available that'll pop up first and tell you. You can then accept it or not. The 3GS is all good and even better now that OS4 is available as a free download Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bimmer boy 21 Report post Posted July 1, 2010 Dude, deffinatly get the iPhone4.... you will regret it otherwise I mean if your prepared to spend around 1k on a phone why not stretch a little more and get the latest one. Just be prepared to also spend lots acessories. I remember walking out of Magnum Mac with bags full of stuff and a $1600 dent in my wallet... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grant 4 Report post Posted July 1, 2010 I am left handed and meant to be one of those that are effected by the iPhone 4 reception problems. Lots of people I work with have the iPhone 4 (and I am getting mine this weekend). The reception issue is really a non issue and seems to be a very isolated thing, I can't replicate it no matter how hard I try, and I have tried it on 4 or 5 iPhone 4's. I think that the iPhone 4 is brilliant, and a huge step up from my iPhone 3G (or the 3GS), even when the 3G(s) is running iOS4. The good thing here is that because I brought my 3G from NZ to the USA, it is factory unlocked, and I can easily sell it for more than it costs to upgrade to the new iPhone 4, as people want the unlocked and non-jailbroken ones here so they can use them on the T-Mobile network instead of AT&T.
