i have an account with fido (www.fido.ca) here in Canada and they charge i think roughly $50 CAD/MB ($30 USD) if you pay per kb..... or *UNLIMITED* for $50 CAD/month which makes no sense to me. So I just pay for the unlimited and use it all the time.

In italy, vodafone-omnitel:
€ 0,03 every Kb.
so, 1 MB cost € 30 for WAP browsing.
web browsing (with a notebook connected via IRDA or similar)
cost € 0,006 every Kb
but it will be rounded to the upper 10Kb.
(i.e: if in one single connection you use only 2Kb, you will pay 10Kb.)

Has anyone not realised what a rippoff these prices are?
In UK it is 2p kb!!!
that means, and correct me if I'm wrong that a 3mb mp3 would cost
around £60 to download!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OK not it's primary use, but they do mention music downloads in there advertising.
1 WAP page from my site (10 pics 3kb each) would cost 60p to download....60p for 10 101X80 pics...hmmmmm, something not quite right here.
Hello (bangs on head of corporate telecoms CEO) what are you thinking?

do you think a UK network will ever have an unmetered bundle, it'd be worth paying £50 a month for, Using GPRS is faster than my normal modem, but at the current prices it is impossible to imagine using it for more than 2minutes at a time. I certainly hope they don't continue this rediculous level o pricing when 3G comes round. The prices are ok for simple phone based wap access, but they are marketing it as so much more than that.
