How about them roaming charges? 

In T-Mobile bundles Wi-Fi with Web 'n Walk

As a subscriber to T-Mobile's cheapo Web'nWalk package I am, on the whole, pleased -- I can browse the web, use MSN and email and generally keep in touch for a relatively reasonable monthly charge, without worrying about any monthly quotas. My only complain, however, is the roaming charges -- having racked up £100 bills on two occasions so far due to this, I'd love to see the prices come down -- even just halving the data charges fro those who pay for "unlimited" plans would be a nice gesture. £7.5 per MB(says Mb in T-Mobile's literature IIRC) is ridiculous nowadays -- hell it only costs that much to use a satellite phone for data.
