Seems O2 want to stop people using full speed HSDPA! For those on a £20 p/m or lower contract, their 3G is capped at 128Kbps. For the higher tariffs you are limited to 384Kbps (which is the theoretical limit of 3G anyway, without resorting to HSDPA).

Still seems unfair on those of us with HSDPA phones like the W910i and K850i. Even my iPhone achieves better speeds than the lower cap on its less-than-stellar EDGE coverage!

rather crafty, tbh though would be nice to get a 3g signal anyway
