3G In Chiang Mai

[JoePai]

Strange thing happened to my BB 9700 this morning. I woke up to find the EDGE had been replaced by 3G with max 'signal strength bars' !! However before we all get too excited I tried to check the speed and it seemed the same as yesterdays EDGE

Anyone else had this happen - or even know why it has happened ?

They are just dreaming on what might have been. TOT/TTT/3B/CAT did not bid.

Not a dream, 3G is working in Chiang Mai with AIS, I have a usb stick for my laptop that uses it, My BB still shows EDGE, will try a battery pull. You must be in an area where there is no AIS 900mhz coverage as 3G won't work on 900mhz, you might be on their 1800mhz band where 3G is available.

Well still on the so called 3G this evening - am living the bottom end of Wualai Road if that helps.
