Sulk, they just came to collect my test HSDPA card. I fell in love with it.
 
Now I got my "old" 3G card on the 23rd January on a contract - at the time i was told that there would be no problem exchanging my card for one of the new HSDPA versions - now I read that only cards bought after 1 Feb 2006 will be swapped out at no cost - seems a little unfair that I will miss this by 7 days.

V3G in practical terms what will be the process be for me to swap my card and how will I have to pay in?

You should be able to get an upgrade on Sunday.

How much? I got mine middle last year.

I'd wait until the 3G Router's firmware is updated though, else it dies.

On that subject has anybody had the opportunity to test the HSPDA cards with the 3G Router / any eta on when new firmware will be available?
 
Hm, V3G. Seem to be an awful lot of things being left to last minute. Phoned my local Vodashop re datacards to discover they don't have any yet and don't have a clue what they'll cost! Nuther pre-paid data bundles coming up! FOUR days and counting.:eek:

They should have stock by Sunday (if they ordered it).

I saw the pricing go out to the shops, so they should know.

I'll find a few shops around the country that are on the ball and publish names here.

Dear Auntie 3G, I believe I suffer from premature upgrade, what should I do?

Dear noswal, there really is no cure for your problem. You're addicted to the latest upgrade and must have it at all costs. Don't be ashamed of this; embrace your strangeness and wear it proudly. Some people will tell you to exhibit control and suppress your premature upgrade urges.

I say; be true to yourself!

Now go out and get that HSDPA card! You know you need it.

How the %^$& do I get the title in CAPS?
Took my 3 tries to figure it out. I looks like the system assumes you have made a ‘caps’ mistake if all words are in caps. If you however add one word in lowercase it reckons you know what you are doing :D

Tx!, tried a few times but then gave up....

How much does it cost?
Utilising HSDPA will cost exactly the same as 3G during the launch phase.
(okay, so you knew somebody was going to ask, right? :))

i'm taking that to mean that there will eventually be a price difference between hsdpa and 3g, so i was wondering, does that mean that there are going to be differing prices between gprs/edge/3g as well?

No idea at the moment. Nothing is in concrete yet, but your reasoning does appear logical.
