3G Connection

Kind of off subject, but how does the 3G connection work out for you? Very slow?

Location

I’ve used 3G before and connection speed varies greatly depending on location.

Yeah , also depends on the

Yeah , also depends on the device. Like my crappy iPhone drops 3G all the time

Hands Full

Looks like you had your hands full that day! :-)

Focused

You must be a very focused person to be able to do that :-)

Work

Interesting work you do, must definitely have some patience! :-)

3G Coverage

With Mobile Broadband Coverage improving all the time, fixed line broadband will surely become a thing of the past for the home user?

I’m using 3g internet on

I’m using 3g internet on my iphone. It’s very convenient.

Download

What kind of download speed are you getting?

Download Speeds

My Blackberry is surprisingly fast!

Commitment

Wow, now that’s commitment!

Cool photo - the shinkansen

Cool photo - the shinkansen train models are out of this world. Tokyo to Osaka in just 3 hours - incredible.

Bullet Train

The Osaka / Tokyo line is the fastest line in Japan - it has the fewest stops considering its distance (stopping a bullet train takes several kilometres and a single stop can add 20 mins to a journey).

Bullet Train

Bullet trains can reach speeds up to 300km/h. Hope you still got a signal ok!

Speed

I hope the connection was as fast as the train.

Better than kaku eki

Better than riding the kakueki local train around Tokyo - you don’t have enough room there to use your mobile let alone a laptop.

Shinkansen Signal

Does Japan have Wide-fi? I’m wondering if you can pick up these signals on such a fast moving train.
