Hi guys and girls,

I hope you all had a great Christmas, I did! No prezzies, well no 
conventional prezzies, I had time with my family/friends for Christmas, 
that's all I wanted! :)

Sorry for the off-topic post, I wanted to ask everyone's valued opinions 
but feel free to reply off list with feedback.

Last Monday Broome's Optus repeater had issues and they had to get parts 
up from Perth (thanks to Chris Brown for the info), coincidentally 
that's also when my Samsung decided to play silly buggers. I initially 
thought there may be issues with Optus Broome repeater here because I 
have fluctuating signal strength meter readings when standing under the 
Optus repeater here, but, overall, the most annoying thing is random 
black screens and general slow performance.

Similar to the trouble this lady is having:

Problems are intermittant enough to be annoying, ie I can't reproduce on 
cue but my phone is less than three months old, I expect it to work. I 
backed up my contacts and did a firmware upgrade last week, still 
doesn't work properley.

Anyone got similar issues?

In case anyone does have similar issues my details are:
Model GT-I9000
Firmware 2.2
Baseband version: I9000DTJP3
Kernel: 2.6.32.9
Build: FROYO.DTJP5

I am with VirginMobile, they use Optus mobile network.

Cheers
Kai
