Hey just reading some News about TMO releasing 3G finally on the Network tomorrow, it's Voice Only.... Will that make our BB Signal a lot stronger and does that effect anything else on our BB's?

3G for voice doesnt make much sense, since 3G is for data.

Here's the link if ya want to check it out.

T-Mobile to debut 3G as voice-only. No data. We're over it. - Engadget Mobile

i dont think the term 3G applies to voice. I am fairly certain its only a data thing. 3G voice is just *another* network for voice to run on, a different frequency that users wont be able to use. unless i am quite mistaken

I have know clue what there thinking....LOL...

a mistake in my opinion because if this is true, they'll have to roll out devices that would support this new voice-only network, correct?

if its on a different frequency set, which I believe it is, then yes they will

So this 3G network shouldn't effect current BB user for TMO or will they eventually Which us all over to 3G?

OOPs Switch!

no, current blackberry devices are not 3G data capable. and i really dont see any potential benefits to high speed voice...

Maybe our voices will travel at Mach 2 instead of Mach 1?

Even then, with the addition of 3G, users would have to buy new BB's that have 3G radios in them. Too bad the radios aren't software upgradeable.

Not at all. Current TMO BB's don't operate on their 3G frequencies. Also -- as has already been mentioned, there are no 3G GSM BB's yet.

Alright woke up this morning to a regular edge not a EDGE i took out the battery and put it back in and and it's still in edge mode? I hope this 3G voice is not screwing up my data i can't access any websites....

Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Verizon EVDO is 3G, and if the device is EVDO capable, doesn't that make it 3G capable?

could it make us talk faster? i like that micro-machines guy. lol.

3G on GSM carriers was the implication, I believe.

Have you called TMO to see about data outages in your area? You have decent CSR's (unlike those of us on at&t) so there's no excuse to not call.

Was only speaking of the GSM carriers as of that post.

I called today they said there should be any interfearance with the GSM EDGE and GPRS networks but there 3G Voice is confirmed that it just voice only for know evenually it will convert data over I asked how is that 3g could only be Voice he could tell me that information....

Shame that you would have to buy a 3g compatible blackberry/phone to benefit from their upgrade.
