Hey guys, thanks for all the anniversary wishes...
I hardly even remember my birthday not to talk of a forum anniversary, but I'm touched that you guys did remember. Sob sob sob..... now you wanna make me cry.

I've been on a data diet since I activated my Zain 30day 100mb plan, so I do very minimal browsing these days. I want to see if I can survive on just N1000 Internet a month.

So whose anniversary is it next?

Oh yes Brym, Zain lite is working rather well for me. In fact, I activated for the second time within a month today, as I used up the 100mB in 16days despite my diet. I'm particularly pleased that I can activate more than once within a given month. Its also quite fast considering the fact that there is no 3g or Egprs here. Its sweetest when using it on phone. Pages open in seconds, and I'm using Opera 9.5 for UIQ3 not Opera Mini.

I say Amen to that!

I really don't know if I can survive on 100mb /per month. I am using these apps:
- utorrent to download whole movies,books and music
- Httrack to copy several websites for later viewing and study
- Outlook to get all my Gmail and yahoo mail

All these are bandwidth hungry. I don't want to spend more than 3k in a month for internet and I want speeds that are constantly 30-50kb/s. Can i get it on GSM or CDMA?

Ahhh! Finally browsing with Zain lite. It took Zain 10 days to provision my line for internet service.
As amby said, speed is quite fast on mobile.
@coola: Try my formula for next month:
zain lite with Operamini for mobile browsing 24/7 and

MTN 3G nite surfer for PC connection and heavy downloads from 10pm to 5am

Total cost:N3,500

Has anyone successfully configured a windows mobile phone to work with glo gprs? MTN works smoothly but not glo.I wonder why.

Was at Zain's outlet at The Palms to provision my prepaid line for browsing but the guy there told me only wap access is available to prepaid lines. Is this true?

@artwales: Yeah, I sometimes browse with a glo sim on my windows mobile. It works well except when glo gprs is down and glo downtimes are quite frequent these days.

The Zain guy lied. I bought a new Zain prepaid line two weeks ago and requested for internet settings immediately. As stated above, I got the settings but my line was only provisioned for internet service 10 days after. I did write them a mail too requesting for my line to be provisioned.

@Brym: You are able to browse with Glo on your WM device because your SIM is activated for glodirect (Full Internet), which means that Artwales will have to get a postpaid SIM to use glo on his WinMo

@Coola: I don't know any provider that can deliver 50kbps steady download speed to you that wont cost you an arm and a leg.
I use uTorrent too and I get between 5-12kBps on Zoom WWAN
