If I had a 3G phone but needed to use it in a non-3G area, how does the phone switch to the other system, does it do it automatically or do I need to change some settings. I don't want to be cut off mid-call and it's likely that most of my calls will be made and received outside of a 3G area.
Thanks - the phone is HTC Touch 3G

As above,
Dual mode is 3G and 2G,
GSM is just 2G.
I use just GSM to save on battery.Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.
There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies0
