Yes, the G1 has it's own tariff on T-Mobile, it's due to the G1 chatting to Google 24/7. You can't get the tariff without buying a G1. I've had mine six months and used a lot of bandwidth, can't say how much exactly but a lot... No ones, complained to me yet... And I use the Last.FM app to stream music, it's brilliant, as long as you've remembered to charge the battery!
The cheapest tariff they do is £25/month, 200 txts/200mins (though I think I got a special with 400 txts), and I paid £40 (I think) for the phone. I don't you'll beat it, on sim only deal, and having to pay for the G1. Lee -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
