Entry-level ‘Friends&Family’ tariff offers calls to other German networks at EUR0.15c (USD0.20c) per minute with no monthly subscription, while the ‘Friends&Family Surf’ plan costs EUR5 per month and includes unlimited mobile surfing with a smartphone (maximum download speed of 7.2Mbps for first 200MB of data; speed falls to GPRS rates thereafter). The ‘All Net + Surf’ tariff includes the mobile surf flat-rate, as well as unlimited calls to all domestic fixed and mobile networks, for EUR35 per month.

Can't see O2 Ireland being so generous somehow.

200mb is a joke tbh. A decent quad-play deal in Ireland wouldn't go a miss though.

So you can use the internet at full speed for 27 seconds then you get GPRS data for the rest of the month. Another treat from o2, sweet jesus what are these people on.

But it is unlimited at GPRS speeds...€0 in supplementary data charges. No bill shock.

The same O2 here will happily sell you a smartphone with a mangy 150MB data allowance for €60 a month and some minutes and texts and charge handsomely by the Mb thereafter.
