The reason for the Delay was due to T-Mobile and Virgin Mobile faling out over the Call Disconnection charge.
The argument has now been settled with Virgin Mobile buying the reamaing 50% part owned by T-Mobile. This make Virgin Mobile 100% Virgin and not a 50-50 joint venture any more with T-Mobile (one2one)
Virgin Mobile are still saying with T-Mobile (well for a few years until the contract is up for renewal) and GPRS and MMS should hopefully be introduced in Late March / Early April 2004.
This is only a rough date but this is what i have found out.

hey, im a newbie to Esuto.
Im really annoyed with Virgin mobile, i have a Sony Ericcson T610, which is unlocked. It is such a pain because i cant use the phone to its full protential, i have phoned virgin up and they have no idea when the gprs is going to be operational. Im going to give them til march, and if i havent heard anything, im going to look for another network.

Yeh, I got it this morning!
. It takes a good 3 days to sort everything out.. so ill have to wait till then! Otherwise, great coverage, and for the mo, FREE GPRS!!!
. By the way, I get GPRS coverage everywhere but my mate who lives all of 100m from me gets none on vodafone UK!
Also, its the O2 Online Tarrif... which means you get no low cost CC, but on the web and a premiem number (50p/min)
Good luck!
