I have the Bold and he just got a new iPhone after breaking his old one, so it's also possible that our new devices are just registered to a newer tower. Either way, yes, there has been a noticable improvement in 3G service in the New Haven, Connecticut area.

I don't know if that was due to the transition but I was curious as to why it was happening.

My wife's pearl, however, no longer works at home. It's been stuck on GSM since before Christmas. My 8300 is the same. No data at home anymore..... Getting full bars on GSM just no EDGE!

Another thing I noticed, dropping to EDGE is now an easy task...before it was very rare to see EDGE on my phone but now I can see it more often. Could that be an over lap of the new OS I installed (.217) vs. 1900 MHz? Yes, I believe there is a difference...
