I too live in the South East and in recent times have noticed that I get less signal than I ever did before. I'm currently with Orange and there is a pole opposite my shop. Used to get great signal, now I get bugger all. Quite often my battery drains at supersonic speed as even the work 'orange' disappears from my screen. I was thinking of going over to Utility Warehouse but they piggyback off T-Mobile, and as Orange and T-Mobile are now using the same slim lined network, I think that moving to them will not improve things. It's really frustrating as I am paying for 'free' minutes I cannot use and am paying to access my answer machine a disproportionate amount of times. If this is the cost and frustration I have now, what will it be like if TV goes this way? In principal it's a great idea, but they have a long way to go before the infrastructure can cope with it.

However , forgive me for sounding cynical , but as you know , i live in the highly populated and , supposedly wealthy south east of the UK , so hardly out in the sticks, but the majority of places i go to regularly have very weak , or usually no 3G signal. It could be donkeys yeras before we see any sort of 4G coverage worth talking about .Free thought + Free speech + Free radio = Anorak Nation
