Status on Spanish Internet (uploads start tomorrow)

Posted by Charbax – February 14, 2010

Orange and Moviestar do not sell SIM cards in store. I am going to try get a Vodaphone one or Yoigo SIM card one for data tomorrow. Upload from the hotel is about 20kb/s, unusable.

I expect to find 100mbit/s upload from the press room at the Mobile World Congress and I will start posting my videos then. Today I filmed awesome, amazing demonstration of Opera for Nexus One and saw it on the iPhone. They claim it to be faster than Android web browser and Safari by 6x and it looks very good on their demo units. The Sony-Ericsson X10, X10 mini and X10 mini Pro. HTC HD2 among others. Look forward to all my videos from Mobile World Congress that I will start uploading tomorrow.

For now, here’s a blurry picture from the Carnival in Sitges going on right now outside of my Hotel, I’ll upload a video of the carnival as well later when I’ve got the bandwidth.

    Welcome to Spain… 20kb/s is the best you'll find here unless you want to pay about 120$/month. Operators do it to avoid users to share music/videos as much as possible because here is legal to do it.

    Regarding the SIM cards, you need to provide your ID card and I don't think they can be bought by foreigners.

    Hope you can solve your connectivity problems and I'm impatient to read your posts about upcoming ARM gadgets!!
