What works with an Iphone on this ship? I know that I can send texts but does the Iphone Voice Mail work as well or do you have call your own number back to get VM? Is it easy to hook up to the ship's wireless with an Iphone 3GS and surf the net? Can you use the Iphone's GPS so that your location shows up in google maps and other GPS Apps.
I'm sorry but no one can seem to answer these questions for me. The Apple Genius is stumped.
Here is another stupid question. Is the internet fast enough to stream audio on either the Iphone or a laptop? I have heard that you can't use Skpe but I have also heard that Regent has upgraded it's internet connectivity.
Hi Warren and welcome to LCT! I have used my laptop's webcam to talk to my husband every night on a cruise and it worked fine. I even took my laptop out on the balcony so he could see the scenery as it went by. We connected though AIM and I liked that there was no several second delay as there is when you use the ship's phone.
Thank you, that's encouraging. Interesting that there is no satellite lag with AIM. That just ruins conversations with my elderly Mother. It seems Regent is a little ahead of the game when it comes to us that are joined at the hip with our servers at home. I like that after 21 days the internet is free. That's a good deal.
