Depends on how many of the little bars it has up the side, use them as a fractional representation of signal strength and mind you they are not 100% accurate.
Reception range around -20 to -30db which will give you the best signal and hence full bars of reception up too around -100db where the signal is breaking up and not very good which would equal 1 or 0 bars on the phone.
So, say your phone has 4 bars like most old nokias-
4 bars = @ -20db
3 bars = @ -40db
2 bars = @ -60db
1 bar = @ -80db
0 bar = @ -100db |

you mean W850....well I can do all those things on my phone aswell, what I meant was you don't actually sit on your ass and watch TV from a tiny screen when you have massive TV...right? O.o |

there is a signal icon on the right side and whenever I go into the mall or supermarkets it cuts right out!:( when I am on the subway too! I guess those are zones without towers!
this phone has been ok to me - just had it for a week now!

ewww i love my MDA! (aka cingular 8125, sprint ppc6700, verizon xv6700) i hate the scroll wheel and pdas should have touch screen. and windows mobile phones are compatible with the blackberry solution as well as the microsoft solution but blackberry's are limited to blackberry solutions. |
