I usually spend time on holidays looking for somewhere with wifi to log on to email etc, so this O2 deal sounds good. I take it you just call them up and add it on?

I wasn't aware there were any other phones available other than iPhones these days.....

Thats the one.

Its really reasonable. If you go over 15mb you will get a warning message. If you go over again, you will be moved up automatically to a higher priced service: £5 per day for 50 MB per day.

can't say fairer than that. I used it in ADH and got the arming at 16meg.

Constantly quoted but a useless argument. My iPhone (jailbroken) does everything android can do and more. Plus its an iPhone.
Android is for iPhone wannabes.

In Val Thorens at the moment. I bought an Orange (France) sim card at Lyon airport for 5 Euros. For a further 5 Euros you can get unlimited data connectivity for 7 days. Working well for me.

I love the way this has got personal between iPhone and Android owners.
Personally I wouldnt consider buying anything other than an iPhone.
its well made, does exactly what I need it to, nicely designed fits in the portfolio of other apple hard and software I have (iMac, iPod, iTunes etc) and I feel looks a lot better than a lot of the inferior quality android phones available.
A mate of mine would argue differently, hes an IT dude so probably knows better than most, but I still cannot see past an iPhone.
And thats not just me, I think.....
