Hi James - I used to agree with you - but a lifestyle change means I want
those facilities on the run. I don't want to have a phone AND a handheld
computer or laptop, and my PC is a bit bulky for fitting into my pocket (or
carrying on my shoulder, ghetto blaster style!!)

Thanks Bob - gosh, is Plusnet expanding into this area now??!!

Well they say on that site that they expect to have stock early March, but
Vodaphone's own site no longer shows it - which is why I asked my original
question about whether this indicates a problem with the phone itself.

Cheers

The you just update the software on the phone. Easy to do.

Can the IPhone software be upgraded when a new version comes out ?

I have an hd1 and looking to get an hd2 and when I asked if the new
model can bluetooth files a basic feature in my opinion they all said
no apart from p4u who said you can bluetooth files with something
called beam in can anyone explain what 'beam in' is
