Wi-Fi

Kind of a stupid question: I looked at both the Gold and the Titanium 8320's at T-Mobile today - The titanium says "wi-fi" on the top right corner of the unit - the gold didn't - does anyone's Gold 8320 from T-Mobile USA actually have the words "wi-fi" on the housing of the phone (not the screen)?

Re: Wi-Fi

Yep...THey both have WiFi...

Just makes us titanium owners feel special.

I noticed that too...Not only do I like the Titanium better, but I love me a little wifi symbol on the top!

Re: Wi-Fi

My question is, however, is this...I know that both have wi-fi built in - but does the Gold one actually say "wi-fi" on the top of the phone (opposite of mute button) like the titanium one does?

Re: Wi-Fi

My titanium one does not have "WIFI" printed anywhere on the unit. I think it's just a graphic added to the picture.

Re: Wi-Fi

Yes, in Photoshop speak we call that an overlay. ;D It's just a box .. don't worry about it. They are EXACTLY the same sans colour.

Re: Wi-Fi

my titanium one does not have any wifi logo physically on the phone. The only wifi symbol is software on the top right of the screen

Re: Wi-Fi

All I can tell you is this, I was just at T-Mobile and looked at 2 units out of the box - the titanium unit said, had printed, had a graphic, whatever you want to call it, "wi-fi" on the top of the phone opposite the mute key. The gold one did not...I am just wondering why one would and the other wouldn't. If anyone has a gold one, look at the top of your phone and see if it says "wi-fi" - I am just curious is all. I realize the gold and titanium both have wi'fi capabilities and we're not talking photoshop here...I held both units.

Re: Wi-Fi

That's super weird. Cause I just looked at my TMO 8320 like 8 times, and found nothing printed on the unit about wifi. I ordered mine off the website though.
