Still Orange, and some are still using O2 in addition.

I think you are confusing the recent agreement with T-Mobile re
network share, this only applies to their 3G networks, whereas the
Orange roaming was for a 2G service only, which 3 do not have.

Does anyone know when the 3G sharing is going to happen?

Where I live there is no T-Mobile, but there is 3, 3G coverage.

Whilst home 3G was never very important, it would be nice to have.

Thanks Phil

Old protocols never die. They just get migrated over TCP/IP.

Orange provide 3G backup, not 2G from what I have learned.

You are wrong Orange provide 2G backup for 3 so as to fill in the gaps where
3 have not built their network.

This is incorrect. Orange provide 2G roaming (along with O2 for older
customers).
