I think there is a few Telstra employees on here.

I would like to know when Telstra are bringing out a NextG Blackberry. I have seen the 850 Mhz UMTS ones get released/leaked overseas, so it cant be far away.

Does anyone have inside info?




David Findlay -> RE: Telstra Employee (18 April 2008 22:11:53)

My wifey has one coming thru work [this week???] All the employee's got to pick out/order their favourite a couple of weeks ago, indespensable tool apparently.

I'll ask her tomorrow, she be snoring.[;)]

Took her 3 days to decide on the colour......[:D]



Justin Van Viersen -> RE: Telstra Employee (18 April 2008 22:22:21)

OK, They were real Blackberrys where they? and NextG?

I will have to check out if they are available. Or does your wife work at Telstra and get them early?

I need to replace my GSM Blackberry and NextG phone so I only have to carry one phone.

Justin

I will make some calls when I go back to work next week. I don't work in the retail side of the business but I did google this - might be some help.

Justin

I have been advised that there should be one around August this year.

Hey David on the technical side of things, do you know if I can download the software to make my N95 Next G compatible? They sell them in the Telstra shop but why buy what I own!! The sales guy there didn't know but that's nothing unusual for them!!
Mine is on 3Mobile.



David Findlay -> RE: Telstra Employee (21 April 2008 16:55:19)

Sorry Justin I goofed[:(]

She now has a nice new Blackberry[definately a Blackberry[8D]] but not 3G.

General consensus amongst the staff apparently that 3G was somewhat less than inadaquete in performance, so nobody[or very few] chose to ask again, so they just all recieved the standard jobbies, but so far wife is VERY impressed with new toy. She is the tech geek and if she's happy it must be good[:D]

I don't know enough about 3G, it seemed an awful lot of staff have voted against it, most said it wasn't worth the month or so wait. They all travel all over the state, thought it would be the way to go.....

I work for the big T and from what I have heard there isnt an official date for the Next G Blackberry but plenty of people are hanging out for them.

Rob- Far to technical for me sorry. You might try Justin as he is the guru on techy stuff.




Scott Dunn -> RE: Telstra Employee (22 April 2008 10:40:36)

I think the normal N95 lacks the 850mhz chipset that is required for next G I doubt a firmware upgrade would help.



Ry Beaver -> RE: Telstra Employee (24 April 2008 12:54:01)

Yes the Next G network runs on 850 Mhz and the 3G network is normally on 2100 Mhz - so you need the phone to run on the correct band to use the network.
