Yes, I understand the list might be a bit outdated, however I believe most of the info is still correct there, so it will help.

Oh, yes, I know it and I do not plan to GPRS during the New Year night. It's interesting that here we used to have complete network collapses during such the nights in 2001 or 2002, while it was generally OK in 2005 or 2006 (were able to call from 2nd or 3rd attempt and so on), I guess that's because they had to expand the number of BTSes and channels due to the number of users raised in times, so it helps during peak usage too.

Well, this might be useful, especially for downloading some huge amounts of data. I plan to use the Internet mostly with low traffic (ICQ, short E-mails), but dialup would be good for sending some photos, greeting cards or even may be Skype or SIP. That's where it gets cheaper than GPRS and more preferrable from the technical point of view (lower ping and no delays). The only problem that it's still unclear how much money the hotel would take for it. I hope it would not be 2-3 initial rates... You say it's less than 100% surcharge, is it what you actually know or just guessing?
