I was just wondering...

im on freeserve anytime at home and i was wondering whether i can transfer my account to my t610 and dial using my laptop without having to pay out on my mobile phone bill.

i know that using a laptop to dial up, the phone will be charged at local rate, for 0800 number, but i also heard somewhere that freeserve have an option whereby you can transfer an existing account and use the same service.

can anyone out there help me - or does anyone know of a company that i can use to add onto my t610 to be used as a modem.

yes you can if you are on O2 contract.

setup the dial network on your laptop to:

ISP name: mobile.o2.co.uk
Username: o2wap
Password: Password

i think that'll work.

im on orange at moment and they are expensive!!!!

BTW can I ask if the T610 suffers from the same problems as the T68i and T300? (slow mo startup).

Not absolutely a bad thing but would just like to prepare myself for the worse...
