well well, I had no signal in 3g mode, I go stand by the window, and for the first time ever on my device I get a 3.5 signal and I even watch a youtube video all the way through. then as soon as I back up about 2 feet from the window the connection fails. so I guess I do have 3g in my area. can I assume then that 2g or gsm (whatever it is called) is then more accessible meaning able to be used in buildings, whereas 3g really needs to be used outside? I mean I am not going to stand by my window to make a phone call
