Hi gang... I saw this on
http://www.howardforums.com in the P800 board. I haven't tried it yet but I thought this group would be interested...
http://www.fastchat.com
From the web site...
"fastchat is a complete communications service from fastmobile ltd. The suite of fastchat services includes unlimited use of walkie talkie (push-to-talk), group instant messaging (mobile to mobile and mobile to PC), picture messaging and email."
They list the P800 as one of the compatible phones...

Yeah it was announced a while back.
It's a cool idea, but could end up expensive.
You have to pay £6.99 a month on top of any GPRS charges.
If any operator released an unlimited non-WAP GPRS tariff, this app would be ideal.
Come on O2, Vodafone, T-Mobile, and Orange.... release this tariff!!!

im on an unlimited gprs plan (non-wap) but the amount I pay for that, adding £7 for this seems silly. This depends totally on the quality of voice calls over gprs in areas of low signal..
It does interest me that if i was in an area with no voda signal, but working (for example) o2 gprs, id be using their network for calls....
As for SMS, I'd prefer to use that other program which sends them through ICQ...

its not unlimited wap, it's unlimited internet gprs.
And it's a one-off tariff.

@Andy P
How did you manage to get a one off tariff with unlimited GPRS?
Pray tell

the (relatively small) providor I use promised me gprs when i bought my t68 about 2 1/2 years ago but then couldn't deliver the promise as they didn't want to setup a pricing structure.
So they gave it me for a flat rate. It's not that cheap but it is unlimited - although i generally only use about 5mb a month anyway so it costs me far too much.

Not bad.
I think if the big four want a really big takeup of GPRS, they need to remarket it completely.
Ask any average Joe what GPRS is and they will look at you strangely.
It needs to be more attractively priced for a start, and an unlimited aspect is needed.
If they're worried about network capacity... chill.... hardly anyone uses it anyway.

and giving ppl preinstalled wap gateways for gprs instead of full internet simply adds to support costs.
