Cellular Phone Forum / Country Specific / UK Group / February 2005Gadgit Show on Channel 5
so they say the only G3 phone worth getting is the 6630 as Symbian programs can un fence the phone by bypassing the built in software. Bit of a warning to the G3 companies only 4% of phone users said they would try it. Ringfencing was the main problem.

What the hell does un-fence mean?

Which is the problem, no matter what you install on a Huchinson 3 phone you cannot get the web, just the 3 service as usual for the gadget show a flashy puff peice with little technical backup in it. >>so they say the only G3 phone worth getting is the 6630 as Symbian >>programs can un fence the phone by bypassing the built in software.

It was a Vodafone 6630 he used and a visit to a few symbian web sites but as you say there was no information on what he bought or used to do his report. I felt it was to brief to be of any real use.

It may have been a vodaphone phone, but he did say to make it work as it should just get the 6630, install opera and it works, No mention of what network (and let's face it Orange got the biggest plug in the pieve >I felt it was to brief to be of any real use. Almost as bad as the how to create a web site bit. It's simple easy and cheap they say, Just use dreamweaver and Photoshop to make your web site. They neglected to say that the two packages cost around a grand for the pair if you have nothing to upgrade from and £300 or so if you do. Why not just show a free or share ware package. As I say like all gadget show pieces a pretty puff piece with no real technical content. it's pretty but they are are pandering to the main market not phepole who have the slightest inclination what they are talking about. >so they say the only G3 phone worth getting is the 6630 as Symbian >programs can un fence the phone by bypassing the built in software. They think that Symbian is Open Source and that the 6630 is the only Symbian phone available. Hurrah for The Gadget Show and their accuracy. >Bit of a warning to the G3 companies only 4% of phone users said they >would try it. As 3G services already have 5% of the UK market by customer volume, and much more than that in spending, I would suggest that that survey finding is complete bunk.

I use my PDA to access the web over vodafone 3g fine, after you turn off content lock you can get any pages, msn, and pop and smtp. Shame its so damn expencive.
