Indeed it is an ugly device but its a small price to pay for broadband on the move. That is if you can get the full HSDPA speeds on

[Guest Pondrew]

If I pay for normal WnW, at

[Guest darrellr]

3G non HSDPA. Will let someone who knows tell you the theoretical kbps...

GPRS

"The theoretical limit for packet switched data is approx. 160.0 kbit/s (using 8 time slots and CS-4). A realistic bit rate is 30

[Guest Snoopstah]

Thanks guys - for the extra

[Guest Confucious]

Real life data transfer on 3G? - I was geting 35-50 kBps downloading from Hubdog this morning, Haven't used it for a while as I've been off and downloaded a couple of hundred meg!

[Guest MARKUKCOUK]

Aha!

I've been given a time when they stock their stock rooms up! I'm ringing back then. at 5 mins past the time (or after I've rung and been told they aint available!) I'll annouce it here. I just need to make sure they don't get out of stock first.

Apparently it is due for release.................

That's a bugger! It says no messenger over IP allowed. Presumably they'll monitor ports 1863, 6891-6900 (file transfers) and 6901 (voice) to see if you are breaching this :) .

There goes my plan to use MS live messenger to talk to the kids at night time from my hotel/office/whereever.

Methinks your technical knowledge is greater than theirs ;)

It was orriginally stated that MoIP was an up and coming technology not used yet and was not IM as we know it. Some people have been told by CS that it does refer to IM but many people are using IM without adverse affect (so far).

I use Messenger on mine, and have had no complaints yet... :)

[Guest peekie]

For web and walk these are the conditions .....

Minimum term contract and credit check applies. Compatible handset required. Fair use policy applies: Relax web

[Guest ricardo the fish]

Check this press release from T-Mobile. and read the first bullit point.

- the MDA Vario II is already available in Germany and the UK :)

So the Q is where the hell is it?

[Guest Syphon Filter]

Same here.

[Guest Ingvarr]

Most likely this constraint is not for hunting for VoIP users, but to waive liability if you will try to complain that your VoIP software do not work well.

shhhhhh!

Actually I have my doubts that the same ports are used on WLM Mobile

[Guest nevawlkalone]

So it's 7.50 a month for WnW which is limited to just browsing and 10.00 a month for WnW Pro which allows modem usage?

I thought you ADDED the

sooo.....do you know when it will be released to the grubby handed public!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

[Guest Pondrew]

My understanding is as follows

WnW =7.50

WnW(supporting HSDPA) = 10.00

WnW(with a laptop card and modem support) = 17.50

This is just how I UNDERSTAND IT so therefore me be inaccurate

Twas my understanding too BUT today I've noticed that Web N Walk Pro with laptop card is now

[Guest MARKUKCOUK]

No idea really.

I post a lot, but its just relaying information from my many calls to CS!

Apparently today.... I'll let you know if it passes the time it was meant to be released!

[Guest Saif]
