I need to switch to T-Mobile
T-Mobile now has an add on called web ‘n’ walk, which gives you unlimited Internet access from your phone. The prices on their site are bundled with phone controls, but George Wright has got the actual prices. £ 7.50 if you don’t use your phone as a modem, £10 if you do. A lot more reasonable than Vodafone’s £2.35 per megabyte! Shame my contract doesn’t run out until the end of the year. At least Sony Ericsson’s K800 will be out by then and should be down to a reasonable price.
Another bargain is their Web’n'Walk Professional, which is a 3G data card with unlimited access (2GB fair use limit), and they chuck in 12 months free access with their T-Mobile HotSpot wireless network (it’s all over London) for £19.99 a month. Very tempting.
I think my ideal setup would be a 3G phone with unlimited access that I could use as a modem with my laptop as well as access to their HotSpot network. Then mobile Internet access could actually become a reality.

Oh god, please tell me you don’t read his blog as a matter of course. The world is getting too small.

I don’t read it specifically, it just comes up in Planet KDE, I just take an interest because he’s in the UK. Do you know him?
