The iPhone (UK) seems to do the same as the USA phones in that any incoming calls go directly to voicemail when the phone is being used to browse the web. This just plain sucks. If you are sitting in a cafe browsing the web then nobody will be able to call you. Even if you are walking down the street with the phone in your pocket you may miss incoming calls simply because your phone is busy checking your email when someone tries to call.
 
Any phone that uses EDGE will run into this problem. Calls can not come through when using EDGE. If the browser is not in the process of loading data then the call will over ride the brower.
