Aha yea, I tried sms'ing using landscape just now but for now it's actually SLOWER than before cos I'm so used to the spacing for sms'ing on the portrait keyboard.

Need time to get used to landscape biggrin.gif

Hmm tethering only seems to work if the PC has itunes installed.

I managed to tether from my house last night, no probs. I tried to tether with my laptop at work to get around the hundreds of blocked websites (no itunes installed), doesn't work. Even with the tethering on, the laptop doesn't detect the phone as a network device, detects as camera only.

Bluetooth for some reason I can't get my laptop to pair with my 3g *shrug*

@akchang >> I have a singtel unit, able to USB tether on my home pc (itunes installed) no problems

Not able to USB tether on my work laptop (itunes not installed). It does seem like the computer needs itunes installed for the necessary drivers for tethering.

Able to tether on my work laptop (itunes not installed) via Bluetooth, thanks to the super detailed guidance of my personal tech support a.k.a. tinkerbel. Being able to facebook at work while everyone else is blocked is hell of a lot of fun biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

thanks tink! <3

Someone earlier in this thread said his battery life seems shorter with 3.0, and I agree.

Since upgrading I've noticed battery drains quicker. Today I hardly used my phone at all, just some sms, some facebook'ing & twittering, (as far as I can tell) no different from normal, yet batt life is at ~25% --> with this kind of usage normally it should be closer to 50%.
