In Nokia phones, there are bars to indicate the strength of the network...

Does three bars mean (figure B below) that the range of the network is less than 75% of the maximum? I mean do these bars hold equal weightage?




I know, a truly meaningless question to ask, I hoping I am asking it at the right place

I think the smallest bar holds the most weightage...

I think both of you have got it wrong. The bars actually indicated your altitude from sea level.
Sort of like a digital barometer you know.
