3G+ symbol - what does it mean?

[rasobey]

Hey all

What does the symbol "3G+" mean? I don't mean just bog standard 3G - there is a + next to it.

I can't find it referenced in the user guide.

Cheers

I will try and get a screenshot.

is it on Orange?

EDIT: Silly question, I can see it is. I believe it's onlyon orange that you get the 3g+ symbol. It doesn't mean what it says though. Someone mentioned this the other day. I'll do a search, one sec.

I think it's instead of the H for HSDPA. But only on the Orange branded Desire.

This is from the Orange website

Brilliant - thanks HYCAET. It's weird that I can get 3G+ one minute, the next I've dropped down to GPRS.

It's not that weird, orange 'technical help' have admitted on a couple of occasions that their 3G coverage isn't the best. Some areas have up & down swingings in signal strength aparently. What ever that means.
