Hi,
As far as I can remember and I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong, but
Chris is on o2 pay as you go, not a contract. I certainly don't have any
problems with o2. Have been with them over a year now. I certainly can use
my own email server, can go to any website, can use other programs like IM +
with no problem at all. GPRS is slower way of accessing the internet through
your phone via GSM, as with 3g it is a lot faster. The only slight problem
with o2, as Jacky mentioned is that if you want to find out how many minutes
or text messages you have, you have to contact their customer services and
actually talk to someone and it is not automated like on most if not all the
other providers. O2 also has unlimited data package for £7.50 per month.
Well I say unlimited, but they say that their fair usage policy means that
they limit you to 250 mb per month.
HTH.

Subject: [access-uk] Phone contracts with O2
Hi all
O2 seem to be the only provider offering the N82 on contract. Have people
on
here good or bad experiences with this provider?
I think Chris Hallsworth is with them and experienced internet access
restriction issues.
I want to be able to access my email, use Wayfinder Access, and brows the
web, will O2 let me do this, or do they have restrictions limiting users
to
their own GPRS. I'm not fully sure of the difference between GPRS as a
means
of web access, and internet access as a connection point, so I hope
somebody
can answer these questions, and help me understand the GPRS VS internet
access.
Thanks -
Andy
