giffgaff, The people powered mobile network
Ok so i was checking my emails the otherday and saw a advertisment on the website for "GiffGaff" after doing some research on them this could be the future for mobile networks
giffgaff is a new pay-as-you-go mobile network, matching the UK's lowest prices. A giffgaff SIM works in any phone, including the iPhone.

That's actually a really cool idea, too bad I don't live in the United Kingdom): Although, I can see your point on how it seems to be impossible to make any money from this. Maybe there is a catch.

I don't actually see why O2 would resell at rates so cheap, considering the market prices.

WE already have that here in Australia.
PennyTel is a VoIP company, they offer a PennySim.
It is pay as you go as well, PennySim to PennySim is free, and I can call 40 countries would wide for about 8c flat rate on my mobile!
It is cheaper for me to call overseas than calling a local number ^^
