General Comments
I can not deny that the Orange SPV C500 is very nice phone, with may features. However, it ashame that you can not access the internet via O2 GPRS/GSM, even the phone has been unlocked to all network. I think there are still some restiction from Orange that left in the phone. I bought one, however and ended up having to sell it because of this reason.

Yes you can. It is just a simple matter of changing the GPRS settings, loads of links on how to do this on the internet. I unlocked my C500 and switched to O2, I have no problems with internet access.
