Sorry, what stress? It's certainly less stress then what I do pro duce when I use the phone for "surfing&co". MP3 files are not that big. Plus I'm not on T-Mobile. Anyway, one is curious. One explanation that I got on IRC was that it was the right owners that insisted on that. (Sounds stupid, but then the RIAA has been been demonstrating being stupid and being proud of being stupid for some years now.) Now your guess is that it's T-Mobile, but that does not cut either, I mean, our carriers are selling UMTS as replacement for DSL/cable, and in that context mp3s are rather tiny. Wonder if somebody from Google can explain the real reason behind this annoying limitation. (In my case it means I can basically buy songs in places where my laptop will be online anyway, e.g. hotel rooms. Not really much of feature.)
