3G is not free. for smart (which i am a long time user), its Php 10.00 for 30 minutes of usage. hindi sya per kb, kunti, pero 30 minutes.

I've tried using my 3G phone as a modem for my laptop to access the Internet. How will I know that it is using 3G or GPRS and does it switch back and forth?

When connected, it displayed a speed of 460kbps.

[ssaloon]

I think with that speed, 3G yung connection mo.

yes. at that speed, its at 3G.
if your phone is a nokia with symbian 6 operating system (e.g. N80), you can set your network connection setup to UMTS instead of dual-mode para hindi nagbabago ang speed.

Yep, I saw that setting and changed it to UMTS whenever I use it to surf. Thanks!

Paano modem connection nito? Kailangan ba wireless capable yung laptop or may cable that connects the laptop and the phone?

a USB (usually) is needed.

Be wary about 3G charges, nacheck ko bill ko dati per kb padin ang singil ng smart. parang promo ata yun 10/30min thing dati or maybe on some plans.

Permanent na yung 10/30min ng smart across all plans even pre-paid. You might be using the old "Smart GPRS" APN (Access Point Name). Make sure that you use the "Smart Internet" APN for the 10/30min charging.

Or Bluetooth pwede din

Is E65 ok (tested it, really nice screen)? how about SE W660? 5300? I don't need something over expensive nor fashionable, i just need phones with big memory, expandable if possible, (for thousands of contacts and messages). Can sustain drops and water splashes (sometimes).

Gusto ko sana dalawang nokia 1100 kaso di kaya maraming messages e.

My current phone is an ancient N70. I just need two additional for my other lines.

I was wondering if it's a good idea to stick to only one brand to sync in my computer.

Also saw the dual active sim china phones, really cheap at 7k. Nakakatakot lang. hehehe.

If you store your contacts in MS Outlook, ok lang to switch phone brands coz most phones can sync with Outlook. But if you only use the Nokia PC suite to backup your data, might as well stick to the brand for easier migration of all your data.

[Horsepower]

Thanks, yup sa Outlook nga po.
