This is on a prepaid T-Mobile in the USA. European prepaid SIMs seem to support GPRS fine, albeit it's usually priced unattractivly. (The only Austrian provider with a somehow "acceptable" prepaid tarif is drei, which doesn't apply to the Neo, as they have only UMTS. All other tarifs are in the >5EUR area) And yes, I find using prepaid sims a stupid idea anyways :) Andreas _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
