O2, w800i, a little rant, cheer and GPRS data count


Hi
Would you believe O2 Online made me pay £49 for an upgrade to w800i?
They gave me the k750i free last year, how odd! (Although I sold it because
at the time I needed the money). I must of spent about an hour on the phone
to various people at upgrades and retentions, but they would not budge on
the £49 upgrade, even though it is free with every other tarrif for new
customers! Anyway, I did end up getting an excellent tarrif instead, 500
x-anytime mins and 500 texts for £20pm.

Back to my intended topic.... Previously I was using the Nokia 6230 via GSM
wap minutes to access internet and i got 500 minutes worth. However, now
that my w800i supports IMAP and I no longer have GSM wap minutes, I am
forced to use the free GPRS (1MB). I used GPRS a while back on a train to
use MSN Messenger with my laptop and it ended up costing me a bomb without
realising. The free 1MB seemed to be used up in a matter of minutes.

What I'm wondering, is how many emails I can download via IMAP on my w800i
before I use up my 1MB?

Average size of an email is 6KB.

Now, that would suggest I get 170 emails, although I realise it isn't that
simple. I will also sometimes be replying to them...

Btw i have only set the client to download headers, unless i click on a
specific email...

How have other people got on in the real world with 1mb free GPRS....It
sounds pathetic amount...
