If you were watching the press you would have noticed that LIME 3G will be available in a few weeks.

LOL!!! From when 3G fi launch. In a few weeks?:s Maybe when we're grey and old then they might decided to bring out 3g.

Back in February they said they'd be ready in May, but there is always a possibility of running late. I notice all the new Ericsson 3G equipment in small boxes bolted to the legs of the towers, popping up all over the place.

Wonder what u've been seeing in the press... As far back as we been seeing, we only got dates that couldn't be kept.

If you have something... Let's see it.

Its now or never..claro not leaving anything to chance.

For internet, you just cant beat claro. The others are sooo expensive. What would cost 60 on lime seems to cost like 5 on claro, which is 3G. I doubt lime going to better claro 3G. Especialy with bonus credit. I mean, today, well yesterday, was TRIPLE your credit with claro. But, LIME is my overall prefered network, and their 3G is suppesedly better than claros, so we'll see... Hoping for all the best.

Hoping so too. Just waiting to see if they'll increase rates for their current GPRS/EDGE customers. I dont have a 3G but an EDGE capable one (w810i). I've been seeing the "E" for about a month now but so far browsing is the same speed.

If they come out with good (esp an unlimited plan) then i may upgrade to something 3G capable ... plz LIME dont disappoint, i've been with u since ur rebranding to bmobile

Were you in any of these parishes; Kingston/St.Andrew, St.Thomas and St.Catherine, when the edge signal came on your phone?

[Predi]

i would give an exact date of it, but i aint a snitch

[billy rothmans]

If lime does come out with their 3g service soon, does anyone anticipate any problems or do you think that they will have all their probs rectified and have a smooth launch?

Thinkin about trying out my lime sim again but i want them to get the bugs out the system first.
