Does anybody have a TMobile 3G/GPRS pda?

[PoppyAnna]

If so, did it work at WDW? did you have to tell TMobile in advance?
I have a MDA Vario II and I would like to email folks back home, did this work free of charge?
TIA

I don't know about excess charges, but I do know all tmobile GPRS pdas work at WDW. I was able to do my email anywhere on property.

The GPRS will work but they will charge you. Don't think they have 3g coverage though.

I would tell T-mobile in advance so they can advise you. I always e-mail them and they are quick to respond back to me.

PoppyAnna, I have the T-Mobile MDA and took it in February. Yes it does work, although takes some time to connect and download messages. It isn't free im afraid, it falls outside the web&walk package that they offer. The end phone bill wasn't too bad actually about £20 over my usual bill.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the info Lisa, did you tell them in advance or did you just go with your normal tariff?
When you say it was £20 over your normal bill, what was that for? did you make calls and text or was that just for gprs usage for emailing/web browsing?
