I'm seriously considering getting a Harrier, if one of you guys could answer a couple of questions for me it'd be much appreciated :)

1. Can you use MMS with it? As in, send a photo taken with the camera to a MMS-capable 027 mobile? And what about receiving MMS? (this is my main concern, btw :))

2. I've heard differing reports on battery life, if you're a light-medium user, how long could you expect the battery to last?

And finally, this may sound a bit naive, but if you're getting speeds of 500kps, and say you're on the Flexi plan, you're gonna be charged a dollar every two seconds?! Surely not...

Thanks very much in advance :)

MMS is not supported. Pictures can be sent via e-mail only. SMS is fully supported though.

Battery life is ok. In my case I have to recharge it almost everyday, but that's because of constant data usage. It may be a good idea to manually disconnect from the CDMA network when not needed.

The speed is 500 kilobits per second, not 500 kilobytes.

Thanks for that Mauricio. The data question was a bit noobish, but I just wanted to reassure myself that I wouldn't be in for one hell of a bill shock..

Bit of a bummer about MMS, I wanted to take advantage of free Video Messaging, but I guess I'll pay data charges on that instead?

I'm getting a 256meg Sandisk wi-fi card which will ease some of my data usage worries I hope.

I love wi-fi :)
