How do you access data from your mobile(s)? One single standard or a combination?

  Thank you to staiano for the suggestion for this poll. :)

i voted for GPRS but i rarely go online using my phone except to check for football scores that i've missed (provided that i'm not near a PC where i can check the bbc website). in fact, i don't even know why phones have an internet connection..

I think I have used GPRS, but only because Vodafone LIVE! keeps on going on by accident. It's not really something I do, though.

I would possibly use the email on a phone, though, but then I'd want a Blackberry really...

I use 3G when I have my V800 with me, but as I have been using my K750 more and more I obviously use GPRS a lot more now. I imagine I will end up using 3G exclusively within the next year or so though.

T-Mobile NL are having a GPRS plan where you get unlimited GPRS for 10 euros per month. I'm thinking of getting that and if I do I'll probably use GPRS quite frequently :)

So hurry up with the HTML Lite version :p

i use gprs, but then i don't really have access to anything else :p

i also don't use it very often since data plans down under a bit of a rip off (averaging around 2c/kb depending on provider and plan).  actually the entire australian market is fairly expensive by international standards.
Do, or do not. There is no try.

I have started using MMS now. My old phones supported it, but I could never be bothered to install all the settings. Also, it's a much quicker way to use up free texts, as I can use 3 free texts for a free MMS! :)

I have voted GPRS as I used to use it enormously, about 5MB per day but since o2 free GPRS ran out I hardly use it at all :(

That said, I use the others even less i.e. not at all ;)

It is interesting to see that WAP is making a reasonably strong showing (17.24% at this stage).

Oh... my bad :p

I don't agree that it should be a multiple choice poll because users are going to choose which standards they actually use (e.g. GPRS and Wap), and not the standard they use most often

@lazzz

  Well some people may use more than one standard on a regular basis like me so it is to reflect that. We are trusting people to go by the question.

Ahah, you can't tell it's multiple choice once you've voted, though...
