I've had a poke around at a few websites and am really confused about prices for data on mobile phones.
02 seems to go as low as 75p per meg on a high usage business tarrif yet orange, as an introductory offer are able to give 1000 (yes one thousand) megs PER MONTH to new 3G users for the first 3 months. Working that out even at the lowest rate providers are offering that comes to a staggering £2,250 worth of free usage on a tarrif that could be as little as 15 quid a month. If they're able to offer deals like this, how on earth can they justify the stupid "per meg" charges that currently exist? If this was on O2's "standard" data tarrif, you'd be paying £2.35 per meg (weighing in at £7,050 worth of data usage on the Orange intro offer).
On a lighter note...I've got my Nokia 6630 now and this symbian OS is doing my head in. I keep finding stuff by accident and then can never find it again.
