And its SO expensive, you probably wont want to bother.
Most providers charge £3 to £4 per MB and tell you that you only pay for the data you use, i.e downloading info.
Well, thats quite right. However, if you are on o2, just going onto their web page ( download up to 150kb) will cost you up to 50p, and thats before you navigate anywhere else! I just got a new ipaq hw6910. Just setting up GPRS and looking at o2 web site a few times and a couple of failed GPS file update downloads has just cost me about £5!! I dont think I will be using it again!
But, its a nice little earner for them....
