Just wanna know if i got hold of a MTN 3g sim,would it be faster then my 32k with a 3g signal?
Because my friends and i are argueing about this and i feel it wont make a difference.[How really could it matter?]3g is 3g? right?
Any solid evidence would be great!

Well, out of experience I can confirm that yes, a 3G Sim makes a big improvement when you use your device for 3G.

Assuming a 128K is sim is a 3G sim -
why then would Virgin want to issue 128K sims to their users who only run GPRS/EDGE?:confused:

(And it doesn't increase the contacts list capacity)

The 128k sims is a better and different type of sim than the 64k sims they first issued.

The funny thing is the 64k sim does work in my i-Mate Jasjar that is a 3G phone and the 128k sim doesn't work in the Jasjar.

Virgin Mobile doesnt have 3G so I don't know if will make a difference. With MTN there is definately a difference when using a 3G USIM.

There is no change in speeds between a 8K, 16K, 32K or USIM they all work the same the only thing a 3G sim has is more space e.g 128k
