New update. The 2G signal had not been working all week, and suddenly the signal started today!!! Go figure.yeah it should work for 2g.
Also, this is an interesting piece of info my internet installer guy told me today. He said I could change the processor!!! Anybody know about that, thoughts? He said I can go to a computer store for this. I'm wondering, though, if the frequencies for phones are actually set in the processor.
