iphone & wifi use

[MAD997V]

Hi - sorry if this seems a stupid question but knew u guys wld be able to put me right! Just got my new iphone yesterday and (so far!) it seems brilliant - have two questions tho....firstly if i connect to my wifi internet at home when prompted by the iphone to go online does this mean im not paying any extra charges on my O2 mobile bill?? (because im connecting through my own home internet?). Also does anyone know if you are actually able to forward text messages from the iphone - cant seem to find this function. Thanks in advance!

you wont be paying anything for the wifi, thats free.

and sadly, no you cant forward text messages, or send pics (other than by email), something that really annoys me about my iphone!

They're American, and MMS hasn't taken off at all over there, so they're in no rush to implement it. It's also not really used in Japan either (or SMS) -- they use email.

Your O2 bill (assuming iPhone contract) as unlimited wireless anyway. So no browsing will add to your bill.

its not that great a phone. My partner has one too, they are only 5 months old and his will jam for no reason. This means that screen has just apple icon, no calls are accepted (it doesnt ring) and he cant even turn it off and on.

Its takes a few hours to clear itself
