Wells, he should check it from time to time and not just blame on the device.

You don't on it, where will have error?

Make sure ur GPRS service is not on.

Also some people who use WIFI on their phones, they do not know that when the WIFI is out of reach, it will automatically switch to GPRS. and alas the high usage charges

LOL, not the iphone's fault la. I've been using my iPhone for quite sometime, no problem ! Tell you what, go download this app called bosspref then turn of EDGE. use internet unless you have internet connect via WIFI, or else everything would be charged under GPRS. == )
