Hello again :),

Firstly sorry for the non tech nature of this but here is the best place
I can find to get good advice.

I am looking to get a new contract phone but my needs are quite
specific, I require little to no voice mins, few texts but need very
lost cost access to the real internet (not just a nasty walled garden
version)

I have looked at 3's offerings but found their site slightly confusing
as they were unwilling to confirm exactly which X series plan enabled me
to have unlimited internet traffic.

Just wondered if anyone here had any advice or feelings on their plans
or offers they have seen :)

Thanks

Are you looking for real internet access on the mobile phone or on a laptop
via the mobile phone?
Three "SAY" you can't use X-Series via a modem, but then some people do.
Also the 1GB Fair Data Usage is just that, fair usage, its not a limit.

I have X-Series Silver with my N73 and can access just about everything:
I use Opera Mobile to surf the web, haven't found a site yet I can't access.
Can download podcasts (Using Nokia Podcasting).
Listen to internet radio (BBC Radio and Shoutcast) and video streams (i.e.
New YouTube).
VOIP calls using Skype and Fring.
IM Chat using Skype (iSkoot app rather than then supplied Skype one), Fring
(Yahoo/MSN/AOL)and MSN Messenger.
Download torrents (SysTorrent), don't use much, just if I'm bored.
Upload pics to Flickr.
Remote Sync contacts using ScheduleWorld

For extra £5pm for X-Series Silver on top of your priceplan you can't ask
for better.

I'm on the old VTT1300 tariff (300mins/1000text/50 Video mins/50 MMS/Free £5
downloads) at £30pm (1st 8 months 1/2 price) and got extra £50 for phoning
Three directly.
