Mobile Phone & Plan for Calling Within Europe?

Ha ha, the Blackberry problem was a seperate one from 02 going down. Backberrys need a completely seperate server for their BBM and internet to work and ths is run by RIM who make them. When the server went down we got the blame at the network provider I worked for, it was nothing to do with us, it was RIM. If you get a Blackberry you need to have a special blackberry tarif or an additional bundle (Which you pay more for than any other phone) otherwise all the BBM, e-mail and internet stuff doesn't work. The only other company like this is Apple, the insurance costs twice as much as everyone elses and the warantee lasts half as long and they can never get a bloody signal anyway. I'd just get a Samsung. They make half the parts for the other phone manufacturers anyway. You would have to be mad to get a Blackberry, even RIM are trying to pull away from the consumer market as it is costing them a fortune. They want to focus on business where there is an IT department who can manage to set up the bloody things.
