Don't you just love the term "up to". And so precise at "up to 246 minutes" - why don't they just say "four hours" and skip the 6 minutes. What they don't tell you is what it will drop by if you leave Bluetooth on, and wireless scanning on, and all the other bells and whistles. They are just as bad as the broadband suppliers - with their "up to" 8 megabytes, but only if there is a mere 50 feet of telephone cable between you and the telephone exchange!! It's time Trading Standards imposed a "minimum" on these con artists!
