I know this because I dated a guy who worked for Cellnet (O2 as was) and I had a good old moan (no, not THAT sort of moan, well not at the time) one evening about it so he told me !

Maybe your M3 spot is one of the same ?
Could be, but I'm definitely not going to date a Cellnet chap to find out

And if you really want to know more about my "M3 spot" drop me a PM and I'll tell you more. I might even moan as well
