    Im also in the same boat. It's running windows mobile 6.1. New to winmo so I'm struggling a little. I can connect using the vdafone isp but not live.vodafone.com (which is MUCH cheaper!!).
    Help!!!

    You should get the 1GB ISP package from vodafone it's €9.99 so the same as the live add-on
    You can do more with the ISP such as imap and POP e-mail

    Fair play worked perfectly( I was pullin' my hair out). I'm on ready to go at the moment buI was thinking of switching over bill pay(mainly for a data plan) Would I have to get both the 500mb plan plus the 1gb isp plan or can I just sign up for(the much better) isp plan? cheers man.

    You should go for the ISP one only. €9.99 a month.
    BUT that is a promo and may increase in price......

    Cheers man, I signed up for the for bill pay and added the 1gb isp promo. And that's after 3 different vodafone shops and customer support said there was no such offer.. clowns. Let's hope the promo lasts a while.

    The mkennedy solution worked for accessesing the web via opera, and google maps. But the built in webmail and weather functions in the touchflo skin don't work. Anybody get this working? Would be very interesting to find out how it works.

    It's probably because u are accessing it through vodafone live portal. The isp.vodafone.ie access point will allow you to use those services(I think!),although it's expensive to use without a data add on...

    Yeah the mail app will only connect through wifi for me. I called vodafone and got my live! subscription (9.99 a month for 500Mb with some blocked ports) upgraded to isp (still 9.99, but for 1Gb, and no blocked ports.) When they upgrade it though you have to wait until your next billing month for it to be active.

    EDIT: actually, it can be a bit temperamental, but the weather app updates for me over the live portal
