Better iPhone coverage in the UK, O2 and Vodafone to share networks

[yetanotherdave]

Title says it all really, Vodafone and O2 have announced that they are to share their mobile network infrastructure, essentially meaning that where there's good vodafone coverage, there will be good O2 coverage and vice versa

This is brilliant for me, as I work in a basement with no signal whatsoever other than the vodafone repeaters installed in the building.

Good point, I did a search and had a look at the first page of the iphone forum, I guess in my excitement I missed that.
(Yes, I know that's sad, but I left vodafone for the iPhone, and now can't get a signal I can sustain a phone call on at work, it's like a nuclear bunker here)
