iPhone 2G on O2 Simplicity contract

Published by Bruce on June 23, 2009 in Mobile. 19 responses

If you liked the concept of a new iPhone 3GS but found the contract tariffs and Pay & Go up-front costs unpalatable, now might be a good time to obtain a pre-loved iPhone 2G or iPhone 3G. I have an iPhone 2G which I previously unlocked and used on Vodafone UK, but found myself drawn to O2's offer of unlimited O2 to O2 calls—not to mention avoidance of the need to unlock the device and the hassle around firmware updates that doing so entails.

Faxes not spam via Vodafone Mail

Published by Bruce on November 29, 2004 in Mobile. 0 responses

Vodafone Mail customers have a combined Inbox facility for e-mail, faxes, and voice mail messages. The usefulness of this facility was limited—until the introduction of e-mail filters—by the inability to avoid spam messages. Sure, you could log in via webmail to view faxes and play back voice mail, but at the expense and irritation of a handful of spam! E-mail filtering allows you to receive those faxes using your usual e-mail client without having to download all the spam as well...
