LOL I'm actually in Scotland so well over 50 miles from the server they picked as the best one for me but I'm guessing it might be due to the T-Mob data server I'm connected through

I have to say that I was forced to use the K850i as a modem the other day (Thanks again, Virgin Media. Remind me to get that gift set of cyanide-laced cookies dispatched to you), and I was pleasantly surprised.
It worked really bloody well. I was expecting dial up type speed, but it was good for emailing and job applications - saved my bacon!

Oh heavens mate. Why are you restricted to GPRS rates?! I haven't seen data speeds like that personally since my ol' T39m days (GPRS was the fastest it could go).

Virgin media are useless. We got disconnected at the end of every month for 3 months because our direct debit payments were being taken out on the last day of each month and they expected them on the 28th. Also, normal 3g was faster and more reliable then virgin media.

I was amazed it how easy it connected last night. I just installed the PC Suite, connected the USB and I was away, it was literally that easy.

I had problem at first when I installed the new PC suite and when I plugged the phone in, it kept detecting and undecting it right away.
Then I uninstalled my K800i's PC suite and it worked fine XD. Multiple copies of PC suite is not advised lol.

I agree with you - absolutely brilliant. USB charging noticeably better now as well. Overall a great phone, with so much potential once they iron out these software corruptions.
Nice to see a positive thread for a change - all the whingeing gets me down!

^^I know, it feels like one big Wailing Wall around here sometimes.
Yeah, the modem has been a bit of a life-saver for me as my home Broadband is down still. Plus, I'm not restricted to wi-fi when out and about now.
