Which is faster 3G or Wifi?

[Tinman]

No need for an app. Just google Mobile Speedtest on your Ipad and run the 5MB test.

OK pretty is one thing. But butt ugly is another. I ain't goin' to that crappy lookin' throwback to 1999 anymore. That was all we had in 2007 when iPhone came out.

Okay! Here are my results.

Shitums. Everytime I take a screen snapshot it is sideways like that! How come?

I don't have an iPhone, though.....

You don't need an iPhone, it will run on the iPad.

Oh. Right. I so knew that.

Do all iPhone apps run on the iPad?

From my experience they all do. They do look pretty bad unless you are rooted. If you are you can download fullforce from cydia. It forces iphone apps to run in full resolution and allows you to use the ipad keyboard. It's worth it for the facebook app alone!

It does the same thing to me. I finally downloaded the photo rotate app just so I could save the photos in portrait mode.

Um, forget about 3G Vs WiFi, your WiFi is slower than EDGE! Yikes!

That's what you get for being lazy and not using an app. hehe

you have to rotate it using another app. like photobucket or any of those apps that lets you edit images.

That site really isn't so accurate -my 20mb cable connection shows as 702kbps with the 100kbs test, and 1992kbps with the 3mb test...

Speedtest.net iPhone app returned 19002kbps...

I am trying to understand these two. I have both. One, I pay $25 monthly for to AT&T because I wanted to be able to always access the Internet and there is no contract. Join anytime, cancel anytime.

Then ~

I also have WiFi.

I feel so dumb as I don't remember which one I pay through Comcast and AT&T.

And which one is faster? At home, here, I think I use WiFi more....shitums. I have no clue.

Doesn't it say up top in the left hand corner what I'm using?

WiFi is faster, 3G uses more battery. And WiFi is cheaper!

Oh. Right. I have photo bucket...hmm....

Yeah, I figured that. My iPad and computer are so very fast. I so could not settle for anything less.

I am going to write this down! When we use 3G, will it say that up top?
