Europe : Five mobile operators with networks covering 10 European markets and a population of more than 295 million – 60 per cent of the European Union’s total 495 million – have today accepted the challenge set by the European Commission to push for better value data roaming for customers.

KPN in the Netherlands, Belgian operator BASE and German operator E-Plus have joined Play in Poland and 3 in the UK, Italy, Ireland, Austria, Sweden and Denmark to agree a wholesale rate of EUR0.25 (18.6 UK pence at today’s rates) per MB of data downloaded. The new wholesale price will be introduced by the five initial participants on 1 March 2008.

Actually the wholesale price is around 5 euro, now I can understand the end of Wind "Mega" options abroad

Excellent idea, especially knowing that Play charges about 1.10 EUR + VAT per 1 MB in its own network
