    Considering a switch, but just want to check first; any issues with Android on 3?

    Meteor block Dropbox and Photobucket and I'm sure some other apps, what about 3?

    Thanks.

    The only issue I have is that the latest Android version on the Desire on Three is v2.1.Still waiting on v2.2 to be officially released after it's inital release was recalled.

    I've a Samsung Galaxy S on 3 and have been waiting on a 2.2 update for months now. That's Samsungs problem though.

    I haven't found any major issues tbh. You can't look at "adult" sites on their 3G internet but I guess that's to be expected :D. Apart from some patchy coverage and texts refusing to send every so often I like them.

    Not really. I am an adult, I can choose what sites I want to view/ignore myself.

    It is a 3 policy at the moment, if I need to view anything that is blocked, I go onto wifi and view them from there. Not a major issue.

    I remember you were able to ask them to take away any blocks in place for adult sites, wonder if this is still the case.

    As far as I know the pay as you go phones were more locked down for site access in times gone past than bill pay.

    Three network is fantastic, I have the desire i was one of those who was able to update to 2.2 everything is good, about the block websites you can ring them and asked them unblock the access.
    Dropbox works like a charm no issue so far

    data network is very good, fast when its on 3G, but sometimes when it kicks to vodafone where you get 2G but overall its better than meteor and o2 from my own experience

    I think Data is much better than O2 (which was what I was on before)
