Three’s X-Series - fixed monthly fee for internet access
Link: X-Series
Why should you pay per minute, per message, per click, per megabit?
Because my ridiculously stupid ‘mobile media network’ company insisted that I do.
But not any more.
Finally, Three appear to have seen the light….


have followed the link but sorry, can someone say in one sentence what they are actually offering that is unique because I’m having a thick moment.

Posted by steve procter on November 16th, 2006 at 6:11 pm.Maybe this was the story that made the 6 o’clock news on BBC 1? I didn’t hang around to find out, as The Simpsons was on and I couldn’t be arsed to Sky+ the news
Posted by Alex Kinch on November 16th, 2006 at 7:40 pm.It was — according to the BBC site. Bit of an arse that it was ‘launched’ but not actually available to anyone yet…. but still, could be a big fan of it myself.
Posted by ewan on November 16th, 2006 at 7:42 pm.shit, if they’re offering me an unlimited (fair use) data use contract, combining video and voice minutes with a text bundle for something like Oranges Dolphin plan at £35 quid? I’d actually *jump* at going over to three right now.
They’ve chosen just the right progressive partner in Sony Ericsson (at least for the UK), and if they deliver what they say, then this is the true arrival of 3G in this country.

Quite a long sentance.
