The biggest decision factors against .net for me is that it forces you to make an executive "buy into it all or don't buy it at all" solution. To get the most out of .NET (with least friction) you need to be prepared to fully embrace Windows Server, Visual Studio, IIS & SQL Server. Mixing pieces of LAMP with MS servers (e.g. PHP on IIS, IIS with MySQL etc) always seems to be less straightforward than advertised.
Embracing .NET also means you need to - be willing to pay for server/db licenses - a dev team who are comfortable working with MS tooling and admining MS servers (rare skills imho) without constantly comparing to LAMP stack capabilities.
Oh, and managing hosted windows servers is a pain in the hole.

Best of luck chasing them on this - back in October I did the same and got no satisfaction (http://www.xlml.com/aehso/2007/10/25/vodafone-ireland-livemobile-internet-and-isp-data-charges/)
If they are getting many complaints they are not exactly killing themselves to clarify the text on their website. IIRC there were a few subsequent hits on that blog entry from vodafone.ie so any ignorance plea is a bit lame.

Went through this futile exercise a few months back - Vodafone know exactly what they are doing but they simply don't want people to use a handset as IP modems. Blogged at http://www.xlml.com/aehso/2007/10/25/vodafone-ireland-livemobile-internet-and-isp-data-charges/

I think Nokia phones only do a partial match on last 7 digits when looking up names - maybe you have another number in your contact list for someone else that has the same last 7 digits? - see http://discussions.europe.nokia.com/discussions/board/message?board.id=swupdate&message.id=16368
