GPRS "Mobile Web" is slightly different and is restricted to contract
phones and all ports are open on it, including access to other email
accounts as well as news. The PAYG cards don't allow full internet
access - just access to O2 Email, but web access on ports 80 (http) and
443 (https) is fully open on it. I'm posting this via Google on port
80, for instance.

so I had sort of given up until your posting tonight!

Having looked at the charges abroad - Ive seen up to £7-9 per Mb so if its
not free its quite expensive (if you know what I mean!)

Yes, those are the published charges, but I'm curently using my PAYG
SIM on a "foreign" network and my credit is not changing. Yesterday's
total was 16.3 megabytes.
