However, from what I know and have heard, 3 and Telstra have a deal for 3 customers to use the Next G network outside of the Metro area from about mid way through this year (of course depending on many other things). This will boost 3's coverage to about 95% of Australia coverage. Thus allowing customers to use 3G features in most parts of Australia.
Im not particularly worried about the coverage, but i guess more coverage cant hurt

However the catch from what I hear is, to get all 3G coverage (Telstra and 3 mobile) you have to have a phone that can use the NextG Frequency of 850Mhz and the 2100Mhz frequency used by 3. Otherwise you'll just head back to Telstra's 2G network which is how it is now.
This phone does operate on the 2100Mhz frequency

Also the X-Series plans, 2 of which you have briefly mentioned, include some good stuff as well like 4000 mins of Skype to Skype Calls and on the $12 (which is what I'm on for X-Series) you get things like Messenger (Both Windows Live and Yahoo) and extra little bonuses as well.
I only want it for mobile web, as i dont use skype anyway, but i just called them and they said that it cannot be used as a part of your cap plan
which means ill have to pay for my cap plan and then $8 a month extra for mobile web :/
Thanks for your help
