Sorry if this isn't the right place - but msn on phones?

Is this limited to 3 network?

I have a 3 phone on a 3 contract, and frankly the phone is rubbish. I want to buy another phone to use with my sim, (is this possible? someone told me you can only use 3 sims in 3 phones?) but I use msn a lot... do any other networks have this too?

Thanks!

Are any networks doing a free sim thing at the moment either?

    You can also use indirect MSN via SMS, although this will obviously cost you more, both for incoming andoutgoing messages. You set up the MSN Mobile thing and people can message you when you're 'mobile', all commands are sent back and forth via SMS. As I said, not very cost effective.

    Vodafone charge differently for Messenger traffic than for other web data.

    And yes, a SIM Free (or 'Unlocked') phone will use any SIM. Yes you can change your phone, just make sure it's either unlocked, SIM Free (same thing) or on the '3' network and your '3' SIM will work.
