Yup, I can confirm this. I tend to do very specific searches so hadn't seen the full implications of this before. So I apologise for my previous post which didn't really convey the enormity of this. Updating apps work as I described, but this is very serious. Let's hope something can be done withou

Apple has confirmed that even on LTE, Verizon and Sprint customers won't be able to access cellular data while they are on a call. If you're connected to WiFi, you can use that, but not cellular. This restriction also exists with AT&T, except that in this case it will fall back to HSPA+, so you'll

I'm personally disappointed there is no NFC, and because of that may wait. NFC would have had me in line to buy one when the stores opened. Other than that I think they did what they needed to do. Jonathan -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.co

Yes, on AT&T only, if you use a 4S, HSPA+ is described as 4G. This is a branding exercise on the part of AT&T. Everywhere else in the world, HSPA+ is considered, and labelled, 3G. LTE is true 4G, and it's only in the iPhone 5. Jonathan -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [m

Hi Esther, Numbridge is a great app, however it wouldn't be a very good solution in this case. James's original concern was regarding roaming charges.
