    The news is €2 for a weeks access, if your into Xposé thats €1 a week, a lot of the comedy is also €1 a week apart from clips eg father ted which are 49cent each.

    What’s Free on 3:
    The Hive,
    3MusicStore free 30-second preview Wow
    Read the latest national and global news. daily national forecasts.

    Free to browse, anything you will be charged for will have the price beside it. Songs €1.49 (free 30 sec preview so you can make sure its the right song before you buy) you can re-download songs 3 times by going into my music, videos €1.99, realtunes €3.99

    there's loads of free stuff but you have to dig to find it.. what's obvious is, skype, msn messenger, news, sport weather, music show, video horoscope, you can still video call your mates on vodafone and it's only 5cent to send them a video message....

    You can use all the internet apps if you get a little data add on but you'll need to be over 18 to do this......you don't need to be over 18 for skype or microsoft messanger....you don't even need to have credit in your phone and they still work...

    Can you send emails from windows live for free, or are you charged?

    Using windows live. On nokias its the third tab in the messaging folder. I think when downloading messenger it installs the two and also asking you if you want to sync with you email account. So anytime open message folder; windows live tab; options; synchronise email. Then shows emails in your inbox which you can read, reply to etc.

    Downloading it is easy from the 'Mail,IM' folder in the download folder of the nokia menu

    I dont think this is for prepay. prepay email costs below:

    Email (Send & Receive)
    Prices are for messages within Ireland only and are per message.
    Read a small email (less than 10 Kilobytes, approx 500 words) 5c
    Send a small email (0 - 10 kilobytes. With or without attachments) 9c
    Send a medium email (10 - 100 kilobytes. With or without attachments)
    Read a medium (10 - 100 kilobytes) or large (100 - 500 kilobytes) email (with or without attachments) 25c
    Send a large email (100 – 500 kilobytes, with/without attachments) 50c

    The prices you quoted are for 3mail, and not windows live


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 127 ✭✭apollodjs


    I can't see any of the options you posted above im using a Nokia 6120c can you set this up in the built in email client? what settings do you use to get it for free?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 127 ✭✭apollodjs


    What phone are you using man? Are you using 3's version of MSN?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,340 CMod ✭✭✭✭Davy


    Do you not have the download function? the 6120 should do if im thinking right. You can download it there, or try downloading this. Also downloading the messenger file from plant3 works too i think. Once it downloads it sets it up itself all you have to do its tick the sync option.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 127 ✭✭apollodjs


    I have the one from 3 its just a basic messenger no email or any of the options you mentioned. I have the download folder but there is nothing in there either ill try that link cheers man. Is the one you have the windows live you can download from the web? Is this free to use on 3?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,340 CMod ✭✭✭✭Davy


    Well try the link in planet 3 then and it should work. It downloads to the games folder i think which is in applications.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 127 ✭✭apollodjs


    Na cant find it anywhere man tried 3 and the nokia download thing, What phone are you using?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,340 CMod ✭✭✭✭Davy


    its on planet 3 under internet section. its the messenger file. It might not work with your phone like it does with the n95. The menu is different more like the older style
