Hi Darrel,

No Darrel, I don't know if the iPhone 3G S will give the same performance as my present Nokia in the same coverage area. As I've said previous, I have always been with Telstra as I've found the coverage when travelling in the country is better than other carriers.

But, back a few week-ends ago, I was staying in Denmark (at The Chimes Resort) & I could not get any coverage, but other people with Optus mobile had full quality. This amazed all of us, when I mentioned it to the Telstra Representative, he suggested that we could have been very close to an Optus Tower ... but did not now why I could not get any reception. This is the first time I have experienced trouble down south.

Until I purchase an iPhone 3G S I won't know how good the reception will be, but I expect the same if not better than my Nokia.

Cheers,
Ronni

Ronni,

Interesting reading your dilemma, however do you know if the iPhone gives the same performance as your present mobile in the same coverage area. I use my mobile just for emergencies and I was fortunate enough for Telstra enabling me to do testing for Next G of various mobiles (South of Yallingup). The result was that all mobiles are not the same relative to reception. Would be very interested in your comparison, particularly since I have been asked by locals whether I know.

Regards
Darrel
