GPRS with OSX and Thoughts on T-Zones

Ask Bjorn Hansen writes up his experiences with T-Mobile GPRS and OSX.  T-Mobile’s naming scheme seems a bit weird.  They tend to apply “T-Zones” to many different things in many different contexts.  In my part of the US, they don’t even offer any non-T-Zones plans.  I pay $10 a month for unlimited T-Zones which includes all of the GPRS that I can use, a couple hundred extra SMS messages, and access to the T-Zones portal.

I wish that T-Mobile would get off their butts and remove the references to Voicestream that I keep running in to.  My t-zones homepage was set to wap.myvoicestream.com when I signed up with T-Mobile, though honestly I’m more likely to start out at the t-mobile.co.uk wap page.  It has cute little icons whereas the US wap site is just an ugly list of stuff.  Of course what T-Mobile really needs to do is start migrating to an XHTML-MP site as the number of devices that are XHTML-MP-aware are rising quickly.
