Since yesterday we have been getting horrible connectivity: intermittent GSM/EDGE switching but never able to browse the internet via opera or native browser. Affecting both my wife and I when at home. When away from area all is well and we did the whole battery removal, data on and off, registration etc and eventually today a call was logged for this issue. I am on contract and my wife on prepaid.

*END RANT*

My question is: anybody else experiencing same issue?
 
So followed up, similar issues apparently logged by other users in surrounding areas too. Attributed to "network congestion" (subscribers probably shouldn't dl full-length movies via BIS). Details added to other collated data for region and no turn around time given for resolution.

Maybe I should get an Android phone seeing as RIM is going down the drain anyway... Or just switch service providers.
