The area I live and work in has good 3G coverage. I don't see any effect on battery life if I enable or disable 3G, so constantly fiddling with the phone settings is just a waste of time (and ironically, battery life).

Using this applet you can easily save the precious baterylife of the N900.

I don't know maybe it's my network but I already ask my service provider on how to get 3G on my device and they gave me bunches of ways how and all of them did not work. Oh well!! I guess I have to wait till this application work. it seems that 2G/3G applet doesn’t work on mine.
