Hi all, Just wanna poll how many of you have ever experienced unexpected GPRS charges (data usage) while only using WIFI for Internet access via a WIFI hotspots (e.g. at Home).

1. How much they charged you?
2. refund successful?
3. What are the firmware version (by key-in *#0000#)

:con?

Be careful with some programs you install, some of them automatically connect at certain times (e.g. every half an hour) to update, unless you set them otherwise. I don't know what programs you have installed on you phone, but I suggest you check settings of each program that is supposed to connect to the internet.

I found numbers of thread that regarding N80 somehow send GRPS request instead of WIFI. I am not sure if this is a known bugs or what?
