Hi,

Not that tech savvy so gonna ask instead of doing it,

Can we make a brainstorm about this?

currently I don't use 3G 'cause provider doesn't have a descent plan for it ATM.
But I heard it's gonna change so probably will be using it in the near future.

It would be cool to have
A) a widget to switch GSM/dual/3G

B) better would be to have a proggie that, with the right settings, knows when to switch; ie.

-Start with GSM only;
-switch to dual IF bigher bandwith is demanded; (can it be deteted when it's just ie. IM that want's a status update or when a full flash site needs to be loaded?)
-switch to GSM when on wifi
or when no longer demanded (after x min of low demand?).

That way, with maybe a small initial delay between switches, you always use the best connection.

some other maybe usefull settings: Delay the search for 3G (switch to GSM if 3G is not found try again in x min.) That way you will be on 3G when there is 3G but wont drain battery when not in reach.

have a always on, always off setting.
