@786KBR,
Your name-calling to brix,or any other members, irrespective of their views, smacks of hapless youthful arrogance. If you maybe knew more about Pom football and understood what brix meant when he said he's a 'gooner', you would know that it is the nickname for totally devoted 'Gunners' fans, in other words Arsenal. He cheered Liverpool because Chelsea won the premiership from Arsenal over the weekend. If I read some of your previous posts, you seem to relish in harsh remarks. Debating cellphone issues is one thing, slating people with remarks like that is not in the interests of promoting this forum.

Yeah, I'm a Gooner... This morning at the office the big debate was whether indeed "that was a goal".... I'm not arguin...just would hate to Chelsea buying another title.
BTW, 786KBR thanks for the vote of confidence.
Unconfirmed rumours have it that MTN slashed GPRS to R1/MB. Rhino8 and RicK700 where are you guys at?

CellC slashed their data yesterday from R25 ameg to R2 a meg and on one of its other packages R17 ameg to R1.75 a meg.They dont have alot of bundles like Vodacom or MTN.CELLC does not support GPRS for its prepaid customers.They did not mention any thing about 3G

Any network launching 3G should be able to offer its users good content. That's why Vodacom licensed Vodafone live content instead of re-inventing the wheel.
BTW Vodafone live can only be accessed through branded handsets...tried to open the site unsuccessfully on wap and internet.

My wife has a D-500 from Samsung for a few weeks now on 'My Call 100' (a MTN contract package). Nice little phone indeed (80Meg+) but is not this what I want to talk about.She has no GPRS package at all,therefore she is supposed to pay 2R/MB data traffic. (up/down) Now after setting up her 'onboard' email (MtnLoade and Yahoo) we exchanged guite a few emails over the last week or so.It quickly become evident that MTN charge less than the advertised 2R/Meg ! So I have run a few test emails and now I can speak with some confidence. In Jeffreysbay area at least you only pay R1.3333/Meg (on averiege) I have called MTN help/info desc and they seem to be just as puzzelt as I am.Now I see Brix mentioning something about 1R/Meg. Is that true or is the whole issue a bug with MTN measuring GPRS data ?

@786KBR You said you lost you GPRS settings for the V800.Try and do a factory reset but this might wipe of you stuff on your phone.Phone 082155 they might help or Sonyericsson on 0861632222.

Vodacom... K700 ain't bad just SE should improve their joysticks because they become messed up quite quickly especially if you're playing lots of games using it.

HELLO TO EVERYONE:All new 3G phones that are available or to be release in future will have DRM(DIGITAL RIGHTS MANAGEMENT).What this mean is now you cannot transfer stuff via devices.This affects branded and non branded phones......So to all those people who love free stuff all i can say now is.....YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR ALL CONTENT THAT YOU PUT ON YOUR PHONES IN FUTURE........you are stuck now.

That sucks. Whats the use? Why do you have bluetooth then? Its useless, you need file transfer. I send ms word files to my phone via bt and then email them. You telling me that i wont be able to do that anymore.

@Rhino: Don't stress about it, DRM is way off...don't think it will be available in upcoming phones from SE, most likely 3G phones... If your phone does come with DRM there certainly will be a nerd out there willing to hack it.
