Hi uranium firstly thanks for this I was playing chess last weekend in Derby where I met Andy Smith. he says his wife Marg knows you and sends on her regards. she is trying to sell her pk. now to the sticks. at this moment in time I like the vodafone one as the software is accessible. and for Scott the skype works fine. thanks to Steve Nutt who gave some info how to make skype better I use skype 4 and it works a treat.
i used skype a lot last weekend to ring home and the cost was very small.also the talking books was small. this is something I must check out. to-day I am going to ring andy for a chess lesson for him and I will do it on my netbook and see what the cost is. with vodafone you can go in the software and click the click the cost button or whatever it is. it then goes online and says how much you have left. I think the mobile stick has made a real difference as when away the internet is everything.
thanks to Annabel and Steve for there help. cheers then. At 09:24 11/03/2009, you wrote:
Hi John.Totally agree with you with regards mobile broadband, I'm always listening to talking books through the bookstream book club on my netbook when travelling. I like it so much that I took out a contract with 15GB of data allowance, plus I get free unlimited skype to skype calls which don't impact my data allowance. I suggest you find out what your allowance will do for you on Vodafone as skype does tend to be quite bandwidth hungry.All the best, Ibrahim.----- Original Message ----- From: "John Gallagher" <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, March 11, 2009 9:12 AM Subject: [access-uk] usb mobile sticksHi Ibrahim, very interesting.the chap at vodafone said as this is very new it should be available online very soon. the software on the netbook is very accessible and now I can just plug the usb stick in and it connects. I can then put in the voucher code. it is much better than connecting via my mobile phone. you can listen to say www.williamhil.co.uk's radio link where you can get all horse racing comentarys. you can listen to a talking book from rnib online and you can certainly use skype. walking hot spot is good but it really eats your mobile battery and when I am out using wayfinder it is no good at all.cheers. ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 3925 (20090311) __________The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com
