Finally found a 3G signal.. sat upstairs on a bus at my local Park & Ride of all places! I have to say, I am amazed at the speed actually - it's faster than I realised 3G was capable of. I downloaded a new movie trailer as soon as I noticed the 3G icon showing, and it downloaded a 1min 27sec clip in 45 secs!
The file size was 1.5MB, so I work that out to be around 265kbits/sec. I was well impressed watching the download progress bar!
Then the bus set off and the 3G icon disappeared.. *sigh*

I think Vodafone said something about free services for a while or something. Can anyone tell me what this is about? How much are the games? Just been on the Vodafone site and seen FIFA and Crash Bandicoot...do one of ya think you could quickly see the prices? Need something to do at college

The headline offer will be "Free video calling, double minutes and double texts"
PLUS
"Free Football, film and news video services and 3 free music track downloads"
*The Free Video Calling is for 30 minutes per month until end of Feb 2005.
**Double Minutes for 3 months
***Free Video Services for 3 months with free browsing.
****3 Free Music Tracks per month until end of Feb 2005
To quote myself:
I think the "free stuff" ought to be the same independent of service provider, so if you are in the UK, I would think the above is what you can expect.

It looks liek cross network video calls will work - the brochure I picked up today from the Voda shop where I bought my V800 lists a price for cross network video calls after your free 50 minutes is used up (on a 3G price plan). It's 35p per min on Voda network, and 55p X-net.
Incidentally, the free access to video for news/football/movie news & Live! is not just until March if you sign up to one of the 3G tariffs - it's permanent.
