carl0s Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 I can sit in a carpark, chatting on my mobile to a customer, whilst at the same time using Bluetooth to connect at broadband speeds (384kbit/sec 3G) to the Internet, through the same phone, and VPN to the customers network. How cool is that! All I need now is for Vodafone to drop their Data charges on Voice tarrifs. If I get a Data contract - like what comes with the mobile connect cards, I can get 1,000mb (1gb) of inclusive usage for £45/month + vat. On my voice tarrif (VF400 or something), it costs £2.35 per megabyte. OUCH! Why the hell would I want to buy a Mobile Connect Card when my laptop has bluetooth built in, and I can still make phone calls at the same time, and use less of my laptops battery power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 I too have to stop and think every so often. Compared to when I was a lad playing with my ZX Spectrum the IT world is already a radically different place. It is v.cool indeed, but at a price. As with everything, it'll fall.
