As I pointed out to a sales person in O2 on Saturday - tried to tell me it was unlimited until I pointed out what the ****'s were next to the description...
Oh look - "Subject to fair use policy" - which was 100MB - unlimited my bottom!!!!

Without having a go, no wait I am going to anyway.
Saying that the phone costs £700 plus is moronic.
The phone now costs £99. Like all premium phones this is tied to a contract which in this case is 18 months. For my £35 I get unlimited cloud wifi (plus bt openzone coming online on July 11th), plus unlimited edge (on my new 3g iphone I'll get unlimited 3g as well). I also get 600 minutes and 200 texts which is more that I have ever used so I have complete peace of mind that I can use the phone as much as I want to with no extra charge.
I've used 25.2mb data down and 122mb data up since I've had it (9 months and 1day and it does not count wi-fi in that).
If you think it's expensive then don't buy it. I'm happy to have spent money on the phone, happy with the monthly cost and service and happy enough to have ordered the new one since this one has performed better than any mobile/smartphone I have used.

It's an awful lot of money for phone!

No that's a reasonable amount of money for a good contract.
Sky+ tv basic £371 or (£149 for the box plus £30 install plus £16 per month x12)
Virgin 20mb Broadband £312 (£26 per month)
It is always going to look more if you add up the TCO.
