T-Mobile UK Sidekick - no, no, honestly, unlimited texting doesn’t exist

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

For all those across the pond in North America who simply didn’t believe it when I wrote the words "sidekick", "t-mobile" and "no-such-thing-as-unlimited-texting", here is the proof. It took me a while to find the sidekick link on T-mobile UK’s site:

This is service plan A: Read it and weep.

And this is service plan B: Read it and weep some more.

That’s 10p per text message.

There’s a "100" service plan which I’m not even going to waste your time with.

@patphelan heh hope you're having a good sunday. Time for some steak, I think.

@patphelan if you standby, I'll need to phone Ewan and pass on y our message. I'm one of Ewan's 300-strong ghost Twitter writing team. ;-)

@_netromworld_ that's a difficult choice... the iPhone 3GS is still a total delight to use -- and the camera is much, much improved...

@ilana could be good research for the next book though

@patphelan Ewan says hello

@nokiamobiletalk I had one for about a year -- still have it somewhere -- reliable if a little slow at times, good battery

@carlmartin wouldn't it be interesting if that arse was reading your tweets whilst sat opposite you? ;-)

@kflyer I have no issue with that, go for it!

@bensmithuk d'ya reckon folk are more likely to type in 'mobile industry review' into google? Rather than put the URL on it?
