If your on the best 3G coverage carrier, don't you expect that? THE BEST 3G coverage?
What am I supposed to do, move to a different location or orient my phone differently like they say?
I'm just saying, as it is from my experience. So stop assuming that everyone has the same experience with this device as you.
I never said it was a bad phone, love it to bits, got custom roms, etc... just no 3G when I need 3G...]]>Apr 23rd 2010 4:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/Apr 24th 2010 2:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/Apr 23rd 2010 6:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/Apr 23rd 2010 9:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/

Does anyone else think this is somewhat pointless tho? I mean, G speeds already outstrip broadband speeds by a longshot for most people... What sort of large transfer could you be doing to your phone w/frequency to really take advantage of 802.11n?]]>Apr 23rd 2010 6:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/
so you've gotten every iteration of windows as a free upgrade since windows 95 or before? oh no, thats right....you've paid out the nose for it....ten bucks too steep for you tes? if so, stop trolling and work on your career....btw, i'd much rather have the option to pay for an update than own certain android devices that will never see anything beyond 1.5.

i'm just trying to figure out when its ok to charge for major upgrades and when its not....]]>Apr 23rd 2010 6:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/

Your name is very apt...it's exactly what I said when I read your reply. Let me see if I have this right. You're comparing the major update of an OS that I would use daily for several years to something like being charged to "turn on" a chip that was already present when I paid for my device? Please...please tell me how you managed this astounding leap of logical dexterity? Unless you're saying you should be required to pay for every update ever I'm not seeing what it is you're trying to get at.]]>Apr 23rd 2010 6:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/
did you consider suicide when apple announced their massive quarter results? or just sit in the dark and cry?

what on earth will happen when apple inevitably passes msft in terms of actual market cap, and apple is officially bigger?

Look, you're the troll here as you've not said a sensible thing since you became all butt hurt and started ranting. I OWN Apple products so feel I have a right to mention it...I have PAID for updates of firmware and, no they were not major updates. Sorry. I paid for an update to my iPod Touch that gave me access to a bluetooth chip that was already there AND took away the ability to double tap for the iPod controls within apps. Yes...it TOOK AWAY functionality. Apple waved it away as they had added the ability for the developers to access music from within the app...brilliant, but not much help on apps that had reached the end of their development life as far as the devs were concerned.

So, my fanboy friend. you can discuss the relative merits of tech companies with me like an adult that uses tools to get things done rather than pinning your elegance to a company that doesn't even know your name, or you can go have a wank over some Apple magazine or something. Basically, while I sit here listening to music on my iPod, typing this on a Dell running Windows and expecting a call on my HTC phone running Android, realising I'm an adult with no affiliation to any company apart from the one I work for, I say humbly...grow the fuck up. ]]>Apr 23rd 2010 7:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/
Furthermore, HTC pulled the same bait and switch nonsense with a graphics chip a few years back...I was against it then too. It's called principals, and I don't bend them depending on the companies I patronise.]]>Apr 23rd 2010 7:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/Apr 23rd 2010 7:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/
What is this one company I HATE again? (baring in mind I own two iPods, two Windows machines, one of which dual boots Linux, an Xbox and PS3, two Nokias, a HTC Desire, Logitech remotes mice and keyboards, Shure and Seinheisser earphones and Samsung TV hooked up to LG Bluray player)

Allow me to clarify to everyone: You can already connect in 802.11n mode with your Nexus One to a 802.11n router. It connects on the 2.4GHz channel as the chip doesn't have 5GHz capability. I'm connected right now that way and have done so for several weeks. I'm using Cyanogen's roms.

Perhaps some readers could harness their enthusiasm for arguing with each othet into doing a bit of research on the technical subject matter being discussed, and channel their knowledge into contributing to the discussion at hand rather than looking like the tech equivalent of hillbillies arguing about who's pick-up truck is bigger.]]>Apr 23rd 2010 8:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/
They just released the proper drivers for the device to do wireless-N and cyanogen just compiled them.

Seems to me that using Wireless N is going to eat through power quicker than Wireless G, and unless signal range is a real problem, I can't think of any mobile application that would require more bandwidth than the 22 Mbps (raw througput) of Wireless G. Hell, that's enough to handle two 720p video streams.

I guess if you REALLY need to stream raw 1080p video to your Nexus One over your network, Wireless N might be useful. Just don't expect it to look pretty! ]]>Apr 23rd 2010 9:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/Apr 23rd 2010 1:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/Apr 23rd 2010 10:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/I thought it was enabled since release...]]>Apr 23rd 2010 10:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/google-broadcom-close-to-enabling-802-11n-on-nexus-one/
It's somewhat false considering you already can use n.
