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

Remember last week I added the hotspot service (8.50 a month for unlimited usage of any T-Mobile hotspot) using the self-service facility on T-Mobile’s website?

I like to be able to serve myself — it’s rather satisfying.
I’ve just added the hotspot service for £8.50 — so instead of using The Cloud, I can now use T-Mobile. Although … I think I might reactivate my Cloud subscription.

Well, I was a little curious to see how the self-service system would process my subscription. I need a username and a password to access the hotspots you see. I knew the username would be myphonenumber@t-mobile.co.uk .. but, how would I get the password? By mail?

No! By text. Sweet. Very cool indeed.

@nokiamobiletalk I'm usually Blackberry Bold, T-Mobile G1 (especially in the States) and testing the Nokia N97 at the mo

@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? ;-)

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