T-Mobile data offer in the UK

Yes I tethered (see point 2), but it really doesn't matter for reasons outlined in point 1.

First, the E61 is not really a Wap browser. It is full html. It also pulls e-mail off the same tunnel to an Exchange Server that MS-Outlook uses. The reason I'm saying this is that with modern PDA phones, it is not that easy to tell whether a person is using a notebook or a PDA. For example, the Opera Browser for Windows Mobile 5 can be told to identify itself to a server Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0, you can stream video, stream sound, or even watch your Slingbox off a PocketPC.

Second, yes I tethered. I avoided massive downloads, but I did connect up. My hotel charged 10 quid a night for internet (cheap by London standards) so I didn't buy it. I left my notebook tethered for hours at a time, but I mostly checked e-mail and browsed. The one time I had a large download, I took my notebook to my buddy's place and did it over his DSL connection.
