    I dont have a android phone yet.
    I dont use my current phone for many outgoing calls and never go online through 3G.
    I want an android phone mainly for using google mail and calender but would like to know if it can be set to ONLY update through wifi and never through 3g?
    I would of course buy a sim-free phone(probably the HTC bravo)and then continue using pay as you go and not a contract.
    Thank you. Hope this post makes sense!

    You can download the APNDroid app, this will allow you to turn off your mobile data connection, so then you can just turn on WiFi whenever you want, apps will only use it

    I know that on my moto droid I can turn cellular data off in one menu without an app.
