because it's a good idea that uses 3g for what it was meant for, that's why 3GSU is praising it. I agree, more useful and innovative services like this should be the way 3 makes more consumers, not thousands of minutes which affect the network.
Well it's a first from 3 that seems to be a realistic service that could appeal. Nice idea... decent pricing... and consumer friendly. I will certainly try it. This is a great benefit for 3 users.

I have had it for a month already, when I originally posted about this. I use the shaft videomail on my phone. Its very good and gives a laugh when you first use it

I've only just found about it now, read this thread and videocalled 123 (Nosferatu is my greeting)
Should be useful if I ever receive a videocall...
As a 3 user I keep up to date with stuff.... and post positive information as well as negative.... this development is a former and most welcome in terms of 3G development.
Coudnt agree more, sorry didnt mean to be sarcy.
Its like a breath of fresh to see something starting to happen with three that is as you say "what 3g was designed for"
A batch of new phones on the way
Video mailbox
Coverage getting better all the all the time (IINHO)
Nice work three, now drop the darn wall so we can all get on with our lives! :-)

Naza, don't think the wall will fall just yet, I think 3 are working on it though (Vodafone are wall-less and Orange are launching in January - Source: Salesperson in store in Newcastle)
3 might finally be turning the corner, and we might see more praise from 3GSU (what will Killahurts do then? :) )
