Good News for o2 Fans

You may have noticed there’s a slight lean towards Vodafone on this website.

That’s because 50% of the team are on Vodafone.
However, that’s about to change as we now have an o2 correspondent.
Good news for you o2 lovers, or as we like to call them…. Cellnet lovers.
So you can expect lots of 1750 SEND and retro [...]

We would like to make a special announcement to the webmaster of saltdean.info.

Haywards Heath Flats

Walking to the railway station this morning whilst drunk we couldn’t help but notice these again.
We did take photos of them once before but they weren’t very good.

Cellsites MMS Service

Hey there!
You can now mms your pictures to our dedicated phone (which just so happens to be our N95 8GB that we’ve fallen out with AGAIN!).
This is obviously dependent on Vodafone network demand, and there may be a delay in us receiving the pictures. (We sent one as a test earlier and we still haven’t [...]

Coverage Upgrades

Then, for some reason (cutbacks probably) the service was no longer offered.
Now we know that Vodafone are [...]

This is Orange.
