It's late... but there's not a huge amount to review anyway IMHO. I like Orange World, a lot, and it's certainly much better laid out and more responsive than Vodafone Live, but with things like full track music downloads absent it doesn't leave a lot for me to be interested in.
There's the trafficmaster webcams which are £4 a month (one month free I think). Then there's a range of film and tv clips, which I do love (esp SouthPark), and interviews with pop stars. Prices range from free to about 50p for this kind of content, and you can either stream or download. Of course, you're paying GPRS charges on top.
Orange World is lacking, have no doubt about it, but it will improve. It's better than 2G Vodafone Live anyway, but then it always was.
One thing that annoys me is that since they started changing it for 3G it randomly forgets my 'your page' settings. If this happens to you, DON'T REMAKE YOUR PAGE! It'll come back, at some point. Oh! And make sure you use Orange directory enquiries - it then stores all the places you look up INCLUDING a map and directions in 'Your Pocket' which I think is fantastic!

Thankd for that
I am sure Orange will improve
Vodafone LIve is good on the 3G content side, but the only things its missing is comedy stuff

Well I wish they put more on there, its a bit bare at present. Nothing really new on there, but the sky news is good to see while on the train to work. Also its free compared to 3 25p for a clip of news! No im not slagging them off at all.
But Orange need to add more soon, otherwise peeps will see nothing new from 2g/2.5g to3g services. Alot of hype about nothing! :0
