Wink 'Roaming' charges...

As I'm sure you've probably all heard, Vodafone intends to abolish it's roaming charges this summer bringing the prices of international calls, texts, MMS and data usage abroad down to their standard rate. This of course is a very appealing move in the right direction for Vodafone. Combined with Vodafone's fast HSDPA internet speeds, the abolition of roaming charges would add a whole new front to multimedia phones such as the Blackberry Storm and the HTC Magic. This will almost certainly boost sales.

Has anything been heard about other networks intentions for something similar? I'd love to see this introduced with Orange!
