just one thing: beware of vodafone. i havent tried them myself, but i know
they altered the software on the GT card. its kinda crippled and will not
have the same functions. be sure to get all the details before you pay a
penny for that. when i posted about the vodafone card to NTLK about six
months ago, i didnt know it was like that. of course, if your employer will
hand you one of those cards, i think its a fair deal...
