So 3 are no longer taking the walled garden approach?
If this is the case then their tarrifs are looking very good value for money.
Their 12 month web&talk&text looks very good indeed. I will check back tomorrow (1st August) and see what they offer. Thanks

Do you think this may only be for new sign up customers?
Also noticed the N80 is now £49 on the tariff I signed up to, god I'm chuffed! I got mine for free.

As far as I can make out, the content is served through yahoo, which makes me think its not a totaly wall free garden.
Can anyone offer advice one way or the other?

So nobody here has a N80 on the three network who can offer any advice? My main/only interest is in their approach to their version of "internet". Does Agile messenger work? Putty? SSH?
Just hoping someone could share their findings.

There is now a Yahoo search option on the Three browser, you can use Yahoo messenger and check your yahoo mail 😎 shame there is no other internet access for us existing customers tho:icon13: , that is still an add-on.

i can access full html with 3 and not through yahoo . if you search through yahoo your allowance only comes off when accessing the searched page . but if i access opera or internet browser through n80 no problem accessing full inter net
