[QUOTE="Kash, post: 485258, member: 23444"] Wow, it takes like 7 readings to get even an inkling of what you are saying. Perhaps the reason people shouldn't "step on your turf" isn't because we don't know better, it's because nobody knows what you're saying. Like iRye said, 3G capabilities are hardware based. If you don't have an antenna that can run at 3G speeds, no amount of software is going to change that. Let me put it in different terms. If you have a CoreDuo Macbook, no matter how many times you run the 802.11n enabler, you will never be able to run at 802.11n speeds because your Airport card is only rated for a max of 802.11g. No kind of software will magically change it to 802.11n. If it is still difficult for you to understand that the iPhone, as it currently stands, will never have 3G capabilities, you're beyond hope. Oh, and btw, I have a Cingular 8525 that uses an AT&T SIM card that runs on AT&T's 3G network. The screen said AT&T when connected to the 3G network, not Cingular. And here's another kicker for you. AT&T and Cingular are the same company. There's no such thing as "using Cingular's network" as opposed to "using AT&T's network". It's the same thing. [/QUOTE]
