*Well, maybe not everyone, but it's a fair old list!

If, like me you've dabbled in a few networks, or perhaps have picked up an unlocked phone to pop your SIM in and have been at a loss as to what the internet settings are for it, you can worry no more, with this rather extensive list!

http://www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html

There's got to be nearly every GSM operator in the world listed there, including Tesco, Virgin, Three and the big 4 from the UK.

Also, on the chaps main page (http://www.taniwha.org.uk/) are a huge number of Apple modem scripts, and mobile phone connection scripts. So, if you've a Mac and a 3G handset, we'll get you using mobile broadband if it kills us! ;)

As always, everything on other websites has the "use at your own risk" disclaimer. I found this from a link on The Register (http://www.theregister.co.uk/).

If anyone makes use of it, let us know how well it works out!

Good old Ross Barkman - gotta respect the fella for putting up such a useful collection of information.

I have used his Apple Scripts page many times to sort out hooking up Macbook to Nokia handsets for 3G/GPRS/HSPA. Its all good and works a treat. The scripts are sound no risk.

I have yet to find any errors on the lad's website.

Personally, I respect him for creating such a disgusting website. In the web 2.0 era there's really no excuse!

Ah, web 2.0, form over function. For me content is king :)
