@ brix: i also deactived the pics on the wap because that will give me cheaper gprs rates and the pictures that loads up are not important but info (text) are important. Only downloading text per page is 2c on Vodacom pre-paid gprs. @ rhin08 when do you unglue your phone from your hand?

Try this experiment for everybody that are using Vodacom pre-paid gprs. Work out how much airtime you use on gprs when you download 10 pages with only text at esato. But first when you logon to wap,make a note how much airtime balance you have then when you finish ,check the balance again.I've got 23c for 10 pages with wap setting pics deactivated.

@Rick... I checked out my itemised bill on the Vodacom website...GPRS came in third after voice calls and text messages.

What you are charged will depend on the size of the pages in question, I believe.

@AYA...I'm replying to you on both African threads. Back to the question... I THOUGHT wap pages were mostly averaging 4k's in size. I speak under correction.

@brix: Usually smaller. Your last post was 1.6kb for example.

@AYA...that's tiny...is there a function in the P800 whereby you can check the size of wap pages? BTW today I saw the Nokia 9500 in the flesh...looks good,albeit a bit big.
