I have read lots of varying comment on the 3 network, and today via one of the Esato posts come across news that they might not be launching the much awaited SE Z1010

I am on T-Mobile, though a very cost effective network, especially considering my 400 x-network minutes, international option, business voicemail and 10 picture messages for just £25 per month, the reception where I live and where I work is virtually non-existent.

3 however has good reception in these places, but how is it on the road? I would be grateful for a few opinions from the learned out there. I live near Harrow (north west Greater London) and generally spend most of my time from Central London to the home counties on the road. Is it worth the switch? Are there any concerns I should be aware of? What is 3 like generally speaking?

Thank for your help.

I would be interested to hear any comments aswell, I'm also considering changing to the Z1010. I live in the midlands and a couple of Frirends of mine are on 3 and they say it's great, but I travel all over the country and could do with knowing what it's like in other regions.

Well Z1010 will not be released on the UK 3 network, this is because it doesnt support all of the features that the 3 Network provides.

A few of my friends are on d 3 network. All though they hav good voice tariffs, d 3 network is unreliable. Tryin 2 get in touch wit sum1 who's on 3 is a hit and miss affair, and even if u get thru, ull no doubt b cut off. I have found reception 2 b absolutely erratic (i live in swansea) and their customer service is a joke. Until they make MAJOR improvement on all aspect of their business, i wouldn recommend them.
