What I mean is in relation to the picture and video quality. On 3G, the videos are fast, but are Edge quality. It would be cook if we had the choice of high or low visuals in the settings.
Got a tip for us?

3G Needs To Be a Slower Wi-Fi, Not a Faster EDGE

What we really need is this
Edge -> Massive Compression
3G -> Small Compression
WiFi -> No Compression
So it's a sliding scale, the better the speed, the better the images/video.
This is how youtube is meant to work, at least on a computer, it calculates your speed and offers video at a quality that can stream well.
The issue may be with the network operators. They want people to use use less bandwidth and this is one way of restricting it.
