QuickShare maybe you should get a unlimited plan if your going to sleep on the job.

quickshare - So it means that your service provider charges gprs based on time consumed online? If so, yeah, you drilled a hole in your pocket... But if they charge based on kilobytes downloaded/ uploaded, you didn't spend anything while you were sleeping, unless the site you were on is auto-refreshing.

@chili
i've search the information on the GPRS charges on my service provider website.. miraculously, the charges are based on kilobytes downloads/uploads. Seems like i won't hurt my wallet for that careless of mine

When using GPRS u connected all the time, "always on", as they say. Which means, that even u r always connected if u don"t traffic data, u're not paying a dime. so when u were asleep, u didn't actually browsing so no extra money will be on ur bill. If u have a wap acount with dial-up, THEN and ONLY then u r paying based oon ur amount of time spent online So, don't worry, when u fell asleep u stoped trafficking data which means u wont pay extra.
I am sorry so many ppl that post here couldn't tell u an usual thing like that. Research guys, research before u speak....
