I use GPRS here in Finland and (2 Lux(!)) have no problems with it! Sometimes I had little problems with long time connections to wap-pages, but it was WITH OLD SOFTWARE (R1B), now having R2B013 for a couple of months and absolutely NO PROBLEMS and GPRS is very fast now! (So, Lux, just change your sofware!)
I pay 4,90 eur / month for UNLIMITED traffic, so can use GPRS as much as I wish and pay only 4,90 eur per month ... seems to be the cheapest one exept those people with free connection, but mine charge is fixed and will always be the same (no more than 4,90/month maybe cheaper in the future) but those free GPRS:s seems to be limited for some period ...(?)
Using it basicaly for e-mail reading/sending and sometimes for reading news, e.g. Formula1 results or any other sport results if I can't see (e.g.) the race directly. |

Gprs isn't even fully launched in this country, heh. Only out for corporate customers and this is only for testing or whatever.
I mean, hell. Even when they do launch gprs, they're not going to support MMS. Heh
I'm migrating. Anyone with any ideas how I can get into the netherlands?

i´m on voicestream in the US where gprs is new and still working out the kinks. i mostly use it for email, but the voicestream gateway runs btwn terrible and useless. so i´m using 1 of the public gateways posted here. much better. the good news is i don´t pay much: $2.99/1 mb, $5/2mb per month. latter is supposed to give me pda access but that has never worked!

Hi there can't you just phone up your sp and get them to send you the settings by sms? That's what Voda do here - if not they can always tell you them over the phone?

I use GPRS quite a lot, I'm on GPRS1 with voda. I just do a bit of browsing on the train, read the nz newspapers and general stuff. Much prefer GPRS to dial up wap, which is just too painfull.
Have used the train time quite a lot, it is pretty good in that if I want to catch a train in 2 minutes, it will tell me which one to jump on. Definitely a good service. Just get annoyed at the Vizzavi sites trying to push "Text alerts" at 25p per go at me. I don't want to pay extra for that sort of thing, just charge me for data!
Read on theregister today that Orange is rolling out flat rate GPRS in france for about 8euro/month. That would be good! |

I GPRS everyday through Comviq! It's free of charge until the end of October. I check the weather, daily news, bus schedules, my horoscope and even mobile-chat through GPRS.

well, still taking advantage of free GPRS over here and i have to admit-it would really be a bummer if and when they start to charge us. (soon they say).
