Priced at $5.99, anyone try it? I think it's a good idea surprised apple doesn't implement that natively because they turn wifi off when the phone is locked

Describe what it does.
Really depends how long it takes it to kick back into 3G mode. If you do it through your settings, it takes too long to have it doing it all the time.

Auto3G extends your battery life by automatically turning off the 3G radio (leaving on the 2G radio) when you lock your iPhone and automatically turning on the 3G radio when you unlock your iPhone. This way you always have the speed of 3G when you need it without the battery loss.
As explained by Apple, this results in up to 50% greater battery life: "7 hours of talk time on 3G, 14 hours of talk time on 2G." (apple.com/batteries/iphone.html)
Use the Auto3G icon to change settings
The comment on that youtube video is actually a very good question
"let say, my phone is locked (screen off), this app turns off my 3G. then i get a call(screen on), will the call cut off when this app reactivated 3g?"
Can anyone try this out? and report back?
I dont see why it would... If i drive into a 3G zone from Edge, my calls are not disconnected... This app works really well so far, jumps back into 3G within ab 2 secs.
The primary purpose of this app is to extend battery life. Does it?
The app switch to 3G within 2 sec.
No disconnect occur as long as u got officially unlocked device!!
