I would like to ask you if anyone here have tried the Blackberry Bold 9000 on 3 mobile network?

How is the internet access?

I would like to ask you if the 3G network,(in london) is it fast / good?

    hi,
    I have the blackberry on three, and live in london, no problems at all to be honest, it does sometimes go from 3g to 2g but still get my emails, internet etc, they use 2g as a backup service. All in all a great bit of kit that i am happy with and three network speads are good with nor real lags. hope this helps

    My contract with 3 has just been cancelled by them after a month with the awesome Bold because of what they call "coverage issues" i.e. no signal anywhere...

    So if youre happy to have a phone that acan call people half of the time, choose 3! otherwise dont go near them!!!!

    Three have terrible signal. i'm in east london and very rarely my signal strength is above 2 bars. Constantly losing 3G when browsing facebook / msn

    Calls ending unexpectedly as my signal strength is lost. Its frustrating.

    I'd stay well clear..... Haven't you heard Alan Carr in hes comedy sketch talking about THREE mobile... Lol very funny and so true
