Default Speed Tournaments

After playing mostly SNG's, cash games and the occasional MTT, I've decided to throw Party speed tournaments in the mix (starting at a low buy-in). With three minute blinds, how much does this open up your limping/raising/re-raising range. Any advice appreciated.

I figure I will probably start more open-raising with mid-level pairs, suited connectors and weaker aces (e.g. AT).

Honestly I prefer the turbos on Stars much better! The blinds raise every 5 mins vs 3. I feel with the blinds raising every 3 mins it becomes a terrible crap shoot, where the 5 mins blinds allow some skill to be involved. In those turbos I wait for a big hand to double with and then you have you just pick your spots and steal as much as possible.
