O2 UK discriminates against Windows Mobile December 15, 2008 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R. Long time ago it was actually British operator O2 that was offering the first Windows Mobile phone - so called "Xda" that was launched long before Orange UK launched "MS Smartphone" (Orange SPV). However these times are gone: O2 is now owned by Spanish company Telefonica and now O2 UK is de-facto anti- Windows Mobile: ... because it is offering on Pay & Go (prepad kit) an unlimited WiFi add-on (called at O2 "bolt on"), but only for iPhone users: If you're using an original iPhone with a Pay & Go SIM card, you can add the O2 Web & Wi-Fi Bolt On for £10 a month giving you unlimited browsing and Wi-Fi access on your iPhone*. You can opt into the Bolt On by:
Note: O2 is also offering an excellent phone "O2 Xda Zest" (the last in the long line of "Xda" phones from O2) but unlimited Wi-Fi on prepaid SIM card is not available for this phone unfortunately, despite the fact that this phone also is equipped with it. See also: product page of O2 Xda Zest. Commentary: Microsoft and its partners that license Windows Mobile must now face not only Apple, but also hostile approach of mobile operators. These are very challenging times for Windows Mobile!  Post your comment (free registration is required to post, but if you register you can edit your posts later) [ 4 Comments ]
