Hi everybody! Having just got out of my mobile phone contract with 3 (due to a change in the T&C's), I'm looking at getting a Nokia 5800 Xpress Music from Vodafone. I know that the phone has Wi-Fi built in but I've never owned a phone with Wi-Fi before. Can somebody please tell me if the phone will connect to Wi-Fi by default or will it connect to 3G? I hope to use iPlayer on the phone and this wouldn't be the best time to be stung with a large data bill. Thanks a lot aaran-j

If you're connected to WiFi it will prioritise that over the 3G connection, as WiFi is faster, and the networks would probably prefer you to use WiFi instead as it's costing them money to provide the data transfers, which they then pass on to you.
