Andy, I'm not sure an incoming call is good enough and it is not a chargeable event (especially if it isn't answered)...I tried that with Mobile World (note a problem with Mobile World is it doesn't allow roaming so I was unable to send a sms, at the end of 90 days, it deactivated....I did try calling into voice mail there (presumablythe call is forwarded to voice mail) and it didn't work) (not that it was a big deal...there was less than 80p lefr in the account and since they don't charge for the sim card getting a new one is not a problem (nobody ever calls me via the direct phone number no matter what it is, generally it is through call forwarding or voicestick).....
but GPRS is a good idea...I downloaded a ring tone for 9p and did that did the trick.
