Having got PSO this morning I noticed that the instruction book said you need to pay call charges and so on for your ISP - not mentioning Dreamarena at all. Immediately I took the wording to mean that you can use your own ISP.

I rang the helpline to check this and they said no. I asked if a new Dreamkey disc was available which allowed you to choose your own and they said no again - and also said I had been mis-informed when I said the US version does allow this (which I assume is what they're told to tell me).

Where can I get hold of a US Dreamkey V2.0 (is this the one?) and what will I need to play it? I remember a magazine giving a free import games program but can it be back-ordered?

Help me! I don't want a massive phone bill but this may be the game which totally change my view of hating so-called online gaming.
