Martyn,
Anything you do through your PC via the mobile phone
and video-phoning etc is outside Packet-Hodai.
You can hook up your phone to the PC and browse the
web, but for this you have to pay the packet charges.
All the email you do straight with your phone, i.e.
the email client built into your phone is included
in packet-hodai...
To be hones, my guess is that it's just a question of
time the one of the carriers will follow PHS and also
offer flat fee on for linking up your PC, but that's
really decided by competition and the market place only -
nothing else.
