Have you tried 2.07.05 - http://www.mobileconnected.co.uk/mac-os-207-dashboard-released/

Failing that, VF will release an official Leopard client in the next couple of weeks.

Hey guys, this promo is nothing to do with this website. It sounds like a scam to me - stay clear!

I find it hard that Vodafone would be able to employ price plan linked traffic shaping/monitoring to detect VoIP use on mobile internet price plans. Unless someone sits there and manually analyses VoIP traffic usage against number's?

I'd be interested to here if anyone has had a cease and desist for using VoIP on mobile internet price plan.
