Blogging with the Nokia 9500 and Ufone
This message, like the last one, is being posted using my Nokia Communicator, via Ufone's GPRS service. I called Ufone support multiple times to get this working, but despite configuring the connection again and again and bugging their reps each time, I kept getting a "Subscribe to GPRS first" message.
I had decided to switch to Warid's service when it suddenly started working a few days ago. Guess they just took their time in activating it.
Now I can browse and SSH on the go, instead of just at the office and a few other places (still can't get broadband at home). I'm also quite pleased with how easy it is to use the 9500 for such things.
