    And there was me thinking T-mobile cutting the cost of calling abroad, was down to them just being a generous! Oh well, still good news all round!

    The GSM Association has voiced its disappointment over the EU's plans
    Bunch of ****s, thanks EU for doing something useful :-)

    Now if only the exchange rate would recover so I can afford to go to Europe...
