Orange 3G or 3?

pault2006 · 17-10-2007, 19:16

Which 3G service are you on - Orange's or 3's?

I've been thinking about going with 3 PAYG after hearing all the good things about it but I like the fact that the phone I want (SE K800i) is £30 cheaper on Orange (even after a £10 top-up).

Is the content on Orange cheaper than the equivalent on 3?

I hardly ever make any calls or send texts, so I'm not worried about the difference with this.

I think I've asked this before but can you use the full Internet with 3 or just a selection of sites?

I think you can only get to a site through Google or Yahoo?

You don't have to access the web using Google or Yahoo!, you can just tap in the www into the mobiles browser (after activating a Web add-on).

I forgot the phone still comes with an external web browser, such as Opera Mini.
