GPRS is not exactly free in France. The only thing that's free is WAP, not GPRS. They seem to consider using GPRS as your PDA option which I happened to not freaking know and end up getting a 80 Euro phone bill for that month. Although, the free WAP is great, but it's so damn slow. I was using Orange France by the way.

@bigjobs - if i know im gunna download a big file - I will take the risk & use csd - ok not guranteed connection - it's slower - if it gets cut off i have to start over again etc etc & will probably work out cheaper (or high speed @25p per min if im feelin rich) - I use wap to check e-mails as I have £4 per month 'unlimited wap access' & chose e-mail providers accessible via web & wap.
But yeh - 1mb for £4 is excessive - I totally agree - on orange contract gprs is £1.50 per mb on the higher bundles after they have been used - which is great value compared to the other UK nets & a bit better value - I think ud agree
@all - I though everyone here would also investigate what there gunna be charged before using something aswell - thats obvious, isnt it??

I just read this thread again & remembered that my old t68 had a data counter that could be set back to zero every month, it's a good idea to keep an eye on it.
Hopefully GPRS will come down in price soon,
BTW someone told me that when Orange first introduced pre pay acount phones they charged £1 a minute for normal calls to landlines.

Ive had free sms, wap and gprs for over a year now. My gprs has only been activated for a few months though. Ive received 25141910 bytes, sent 4109041 bytes and the time counter is 340:59:30. I really wouldnt use gprs if I had to pay, I mean its great an all but sliced bread IS better.
