Just got my 3GS on the 3 plan – they were doing a over-the-phone deal for the ppl who had expressed interest in the phone for the 16GB @ $25 per month for 24 months with 1GB data per month. I figured this was a lot better than getting the 32GB for $45 per month and after reading the reviews that ppl recommended the 16GB is big enough.
Can anyone help though – i’ve just noticed that my phone is constantly roaming at work cos the signal on lvl 15 in the CBD on 3 is seemingly pathetic – if i browse for a few minutes i’m going to get charged massive amounts of fees right???

Good luck with 3 data…
I got charge $6.80 for just 14MB download while using iphone at roaming. It is crap how the roaming data is not include with data pack.

The iPhone won’t roam onto Telstra if it has a 3 signal available. Since I got my iPhone 3G, I have never seen it roam. I have had other phones roam all the time, including when there’s a perfectly good 3 signal available.

Plus, even if it does roam, you can disable roaming data so it won’t cost you any more.

When I was with 3, my phone was on roaming networks like 90% of the time (which 3 charge you a mountain of cash for), and the service you get from the 3 shops is like having to pay for being kicked in the nuts several times.

So I don’t think I’ll ever go with back with them, especially not when it involves iPhone or other smartphones.

This sounds good: For only $110 p/m you’ll get 3000 minutes of calls, 500 SMS/MMS and 3GB’s of Mobile Internet every month.Choose between the iPhone 3GS 16GB for free or the iPhone 3GS 32GB for only $5 p/m.

For someone whos been with three since it stated in Australia, not really very happy. I expected better deals. For now, I am not going to change my phone. Perhaps in about a month or two, when the prices start to drop down a bit..

$67 a month for a 32GB 3GS? That’s pretty damn cheap…in fact cheapest I’ve seen anywhere.
