Default Re: What network & handset for remote access?

Thanks Jon. However, from what I understand, the Orange 3G network is
poor and the main reason to change device and network is to get
something with maximum data capability.
>From what I've found, Three now offer the best 3G coverage (91% of

population). While the P990i has everything, the screen resolution is
the key for making it useable for internet surfing and remote access
applications. While the P990i is good in this respect, most smart
phones are the same as this. The only one that I can find is better is
the i-mate JasJar/Qtek 9000 which has a 640x480 screen.

I'm therefore assuming that a Qtek 9000 on Three would be the best
available combination for data use. I've called Three (business sales)
twice now and they have given me different answers each time to some of
my questions and show no interest in selling me a new contract. Today
I was told that someone will call me back in two days or so!!!!!
