I am considering a new phone suitable for using as a modem to connect my notebook for infrequent uses. I was going to go for either a Motorola V6 MAXX of imate SPJAS both with HSDPA when I saw that Vodafone have just released a Vodafone 1210 with HSCSD. Which will give me the best results and still provde a good phone
Thanks

HSCSD is not used on the VFNZ network only CSD

HSCSD is network (cell level) capacity hungry

HSDPA is years ahead of HSCSD

Does the I-mate SP-JAS actually support HSDPA? mine was fantastic but started to have GSM RF issues, now using a Nokia n95 for the GPS function but I miss the Jas.

HSCSD is ancient... Not even worth worrying about, not supported here and very very battery-hungry

JohnR, When you say

HSCSD is network (cell level) capacity hungry
Should't New Zealand have ample spare capacity since we are not crowded at all!

Yes, the SP-Jas is HSDPA-enabled.

The v1210 is CSD (old technology, circuit switched) and WCDMA (3G, packet switched) compatible.

Hi Guys
Thanks for all your advice. Looks like the Mv6maxx is the phone for me.
