@masseur...
As far as i know its £40 a month and that includes voda family so u get unlimited free calls to 4 nominated voda numbers as well!
AND, they r giving ANY phone for free on price plans above £35 so u can pick ANY phone u want for nothin on that plan!

Have you not tried the email configurator on the SE support site?

Its wrong that they even cost 10p as texts take up little capacity on the networks. Also i think they should be about 3p or so as with Virgin though thats to the same network. I text alot though mine are free every month from Orange pre pay. Dont think the networks will ever bring down the price of texts though.

email settings for the phone use exactly the same settings as email on your pc, assuming your using a pop3/smtp or imap service
the only difference is that your smtp server will probably have to be set to the server supplied by your mobile service provider
its dead easy to setup and takes a couple of minutes max

/---/ am I the only one who prefers emails to texts?
I also prefere emails. Usually I send couple of sms during one month. My "personal best" was ca 30 (or was it 36?) sms per one mone month.
Usually I use sms when I am abroad. Also during christmas and other holidays - when I get sms I usually reply to be polite
Because of my work my email programm is always running and I receive and send quite many emails during a day (when I am not away from computer).
Sometimes I also send emails from my mobile phone. It's more cheap than sms and the text limit is not 160 characters.

errmmm...
you'd love my phone bill then..
29 pages of pure texts this month...
and they don't cost a bomb. they cost me £35 a month for 550mins and unlimited texts..
and while i use email too like 16mb a month mail, text is just easier and not everyone has access to mail on their mobiles..
also did you know that sms where actually a mishap on the gsm network? it wasnt supposed to work! it's a flaw...
