How about the fridge is the Internet, full of things like cakes (WAP
sites), gateaux (websites), and chocolate eclairs (e-mail), you can
choose whether you want them on a plate (GPRS) or a dish (CSD), and
there's a couple of bouncers by the fridge door who are in charge of
handing over what you want.
There's one bouncer who's foreign and only understands the word 'cake'
and another who will hand over anything you ask for (*). You pay them
both the same rate.
Or you can pay buy a membership card valid for a month (WAP Open Access
or GPRS unlimited access) and the membership card for the foreign
bouncer is cheaper.
Er, that didn't help did it?
