Hi

I'm with O2 online and currently have a D600 - However I'm thinking about
buying offline a 3G phone. Do I have to get a new SIM card to take advantage
of the 3G features? The only reason I ask I see someone offering a PAYG 3G
SIM card... didn't even know there were any?

Glen.

You need an O2 3g SIM to use their 3g service. There are some 3g PAYG
SIM cards about (I have one). But I know recently of people who have
tried to get one and both Customer Services and Sales said they don't
exist.

I have had a reply from O2 regarding the 3G SIMs - They do exist and
offered to send me one.

The O2 contract sim I got with a nokia 6030 worked straight off with
a mates O2 3G handset.

Maybe you can go down to an O2 shop and see if they have any 3G
handsets you can try it out in.
