I want a phone that i can get unlimited wifi and want to see if there is anything out there apart from the iphone?

Has anyone got a good deal on a phone recently that included free wifi?

    Unlimited Wifi?

    Well, I am not sure if you mean unlimited Internet. WiFi is usually free, esp when its your own ;-)

    Actually, OP is right, buying the Iphone on PayG does activate unlimited data through mobile internet and Wifi.

    Now we all know Wifi is free if we use it through our own wifi or some free hotspots. But some Wifi networks have limited access or are capped, and the unlimited Wifi gains you extra access to these hot spots (BT open zone or the Cloud).

    OP, if you get a simplicity sim with 02, you can add a free bolt on of either unlimited mobile internet or unlimited Wifi. It depends what sort of places you will be using your phone in, but if you are constantly on the move in places with no wifi, go for the mobile internet bolt on.

    Also, if you have the top broadband package with BT, they may give you access to BT open zone through your own account, which gives you even less reason to opt for the unlimited Wifi bolt on as you you use your BT log in details.

    This sim can be used in any phone capable of using data services.
    Try to imagine nothing ever existed...

    I have been looking at new contracts, and Vodaphone seems to be the only one which offers unlimited mobile internet.
