Well, the games for the NEC 525 HDM are free, and you can download them right to your
phone, but they are not network games that you can play with others. The most expensive
thing for me with this phone is web browsing, and e-mails, although AT&T wireless offers
different packages of services, for instance I think each individual e-mail is like .20 cents
apiece, but you can buy like 100 email messages for a reduced price. I also use the phone
in other countries, and instead of paying the high roaming charges, I pay an extra fee for a
reduced per minute usage in countries I need to use my phone in. NEC is reportedly
poised to be a huge player in the 3G next gen phones & wireless/broadband technology,
and I am waiting anxiously to see what kind of goodies they will have, but that probably
won't be a reality here in the US for another few years, don't know about Japan, I mean
they probably already have 3G devices up and running already.
Consider this info as well about Vodafone:
