When using the browser or Google Maps, willll my phone look for a Wi Fi network first? I have Wi Fi access at home and I assume it uses that rather than me being chanrged for a connection. The reason I ask is that I don't know how to tell from the icons on the top right hannd corner. My Nokia N95 used to ask before connecting.

i think it needs to be setup to search for a specific wi-fi network, rather than just connect to one straight away. not sure of the wi-fi logo changes to indicate when you're in one (Unless you leave wi-fi switched on and its an open network maybe)

Without trying to hijack your thread, does anyone know why I can't surf the web on National Express trains, it connects perfectly fine, but wont load any pages

Yes the Bold will automatically use a WiFi network it has the settings for. You can tell if it is using the network by looking at the top right, if the WiFi logo is bright then it is using WiFi - if it is greyed out it is not.
