setting up my wireless internet the first time, and rod spent a good deal of

Check your settings. I bought wife an N95, it takes pictures full res, try
to MMS them and it gives you a question something like "will convert to
lower res to send?" and you just press Yes

You "bought wife"?

No article or possessive pronoun?

What effort, Michael?

She SMSes me. I call her back. The call, which lasted half an hour or so cost me
ten cents from Oz to the UK or the US, whereever she was at the time.

She lodged a complaint with Optus when she got home. Some PR droid rang today to
chat to her. She looked up her account and said that "yes, the international
roaming should have been activated but at some point it failed to go through."

And after a while when the missus vented her spleen She was give 3 months free
usage.

Lesson to be learned. Ensure that IR is enabled BEFORE leaving Oz. Also, don't
believe a word that the sales droids tell you in the store when they are trying
to separate your heard earned readies from you. Chase it up, whatever the issue
may be with Optus or the whateve the carrier is.

I would consider this thread closed, if such a thing were possible.
