I was contacted by MTCtouch monday, saying that i was chosen to test 3G along with 20,000 others
for 1 month free and 10GB cap
i just said ok and didn't actually pay any attention to the matter.
Last night, the EDGE on my phone actually did change to 3G !!
to make a long story short:
- internet speed is really faster, as i know 3.9G from abroad, it is almost the same
- it is still unstable as it switches back to EDGE depending on the 3G signal strength
- video streaming is seamless... just like watching tv
- i tried watching mtv online... excellent
- video conferencing is good.
that said, i don't know if it will actually be available for the public before the end of the year.
and if so, i expect phone companies to replace the GPRS packages they are offering with 3G and to reduce their prices, since the MoT has reduced ADSL prices.

I just ran 3 speed tests: 905 Kbps, 836 Kbps and 862 Kbps

Please post in the topic called "3G in Lebanon updates" for information about 3G. Such information as you posted is really helpful for others. Thank you.
