    That was great information, pity that Vodafone couldn’t have given it to me despite asking them several times and checking their websites. I tried to update the setting via iTunes update like they told me to but that didn’t work.

    Anyway, I plugged in your settings and ’3G’ popped up. I assumed that I put in my vodafone username and password or could I have left that blank?

    One thing that Vodafone said was that I get the promotional 300Mb for this month for ‘browsing’ but not downloading. I wonder if apps like google earth or yahoo messenger fall into the ‘browsing’ category, probably not.

    Vodafone, you need to lift your game (at least your website).

    Hi there Bernie,

    You should leave the username and passwords blank.

    If the 3G icon pops up it means you’ve got the right settings put in (but you should still leave the user and pass blank).

    As for the 300mb free, I download applications on the iPhone and it takes it out of the 300mb for me.

    You should be able to find information on the Vodafone website in the FAQ section?

    Thanks for that again, I found the settings on the Vodafone website (slightly different but I guess it didn’t make any difference). The only problem now is that my iTunes wants to change these settings everytime I sync. I guess maybe this is because I set up my iStore account in the UK as I don’t think I can do it with a Qatar address.

    Does anyone know a way around this, it seems if I say I don’t want to change the settings then it cancels the sync completely.

    Cheers

    What should be happening is that when you sync your iphone with iTunes (and you have a Vodafone sim in) it should automatically download the Vodafone Qatar settings into your phone.

Freedom of Expression

    Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which the Qatari Government is a signatory of states: Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any medias and regardless of any frontiers.

    The Emiri Decision Number 86 of the year 2007 on the establishment of the Doha Free Information Centre marked yet another step towards establishing a State of rights and freedom of speech. The decision stipulated that the Centre be a non-profit organization, headquartered in Doha City, and have the authority to establish other affiliated centres inside and outside Qatar. It is worth mentioning that His Highness the Emir issued a decision in 1998 annulling the ministry of information, giving birth to a new era of freedom of speech where censorship was removed from local media.
