know what PAYG packages are any good out there and whether I can move my

Hi, I have a slightly techie question re. mobile phones. If I am trying
to phone someone who is on the O2 network and they are in an area that
is out of range of the base stations or whatever the correct term is,
then would I hear a ringing tone on my phone or would I get a message

Can I rely on this being a smooth transaction, with tesco using the o2
network ?

Had a call today from a bloke with a Scottish accent who claimed his
name was Mark. He seemed very concerned that I might not be aware that
Orange are changing their contracts soon (are they?) and that he would

Orange PAYG network. Not having used it for some time, I recently

I have a 3g Vodaphone Data Card (PCMCIA).  It is an E620 made by
HUAWEI.
I have now got a HP Pavillion Laptop and the slot I assumed was a
PCMCIA is in fact a PCI Express - possible known as a Mini Express.

I'm sure these used to be very bad value -- have they made them better
recently? I'm currently considering an upgrade from my K750i (in month
