>Thanks John. And you're finding your Vario II to be good?

I like mine - the only thing I'd change is the O.S. - I much prefer Symbian to
Windows Mobile. But it's a great handset - and there's nothing "wrong" with
Windows Mobile as such, it's just a bit, er, clunky.

Yes, it's called Skype. You may have heard of it
