3G Upgrade
When in the heck will ATT finally upgrade its smartphones, mainly this BB Curve 8310 to 3G? They said they will, but so far NOTHING. I am tired of waiting. I have an 8310 now and I hate the speed I get when I get tether it to my laptop. It's very slow. Anyone knows how I can get a higher speed than 115 kbps?
PS. any comments about me getting a Laptop Card, please keep it to yourself. I don't want it. I prefer to tether.
