@Hintza and Rhino: Which is probably why Apple couldn't be bothered bringing the iTunes stores to SA coz that's about the same money they'll ask for tracks.

LOL Gucci.
Yeah gola, my Walkman Wanqometer estimates that it should be just below the 300 mark when Carphone Warehouse get their PAYG stock...
Obviously, new-to-the-market, high(er)-end handsets that arrive in limited initial batches at CPW are contract-only, but usually it isn't more than a month or two before CPW offer these on PAYG as well.

@ Mario New Zealand tops that list.Very interesting.@Rhino Have you managed to go online with the Facebook app using Edge/3G or does the problem still exist.Lets hope if it still a problem that they release an updated version soon that fixes it.@ Gucci What do you say about that bud.Rotten apples. You might think a R100 is a laughing matter,but that guy just has to do one bribe a day and at the end of the month he will have earned himself a rotten apple salary of R3000.Think two bribes a day.Mmm Yes he increases his chances of been caught but it could be very profitable.

Well have not tried again, since the app crashed 5 minutes or less after launch... I also hope for a fix very swoon

@ gola:

Did you arrive in the UK last night, and then perhaps drove up to Birmingham later in the evening...?
If so, you may have a bit of explaining to do about some possibly missing W995's... :
