just got of the fone wit a dealer for digicel. they launching Friday 11th May, (hence thats why the trial ends of thursday 10th). i also asked if they would have a payment option for expensive smart fones like bmobile. you pay an installment every month. she mentioned the dealers not sure cause digicel have some big secrets they not even telling the dealers about, so they keeping it under wraps. if anyone pass through trincity mall you will notice, lollabee closed and bar up. they closed for renovations for d launch of d 4g network. Please dont hold me to this information, as more or less everyone is in d dark about this launch.

Noticed that Citygate has a new Digicel booth in front KFC, but it's closed still. Fully equipped inside though.

I did some speed tests in UWI. Honestly. I was expecting a little better. I got around 1.4mbit down. This was by JFK. However. As u drive out... 3.5mbit! Lol.

But remember this trial is only 10,000 people eh...

I hoping they give us who on unlimited BIS/edge a free upgrade to something like 2GB of 4G. I hope too that the data still works for iPhone although it working right now :$
Although what I'd use it for, like streaming music etc I might finish it quickly!

Oh and VPNs work fine! I used HSS today on my drive to UWI with pandora app and it streamed really well!

Flow of course. Maybe a Gigabit connection. 1Gbps can support about 100 000 customers simultaneously, but the ping would be slow at the same time. If Digicel gets more customers than that, hopefully they'll buy more from Flow to compensate.

Unless I missed it earlier, apologies for jumping in on the 12th page, is Digicel using 3G bands 1,4,8 (T-Mobile) or 1,2,5,6 (AT&T)?


Thanks
