3 Broadband PAYG Overtakes Contract Broadband

By Pitt Ramsburger

This article will explain what 3 Laptop Broadband and Mobile Internet are and then give you 3 tips you shouldn't live without if you are looking at joining everyone else getting online and mobile.

Mobile allows millions of business people, students and regular internet users to access their bank accounts, friends, and info and personal data wherever there is a mobile phone signal. It's quick, easy and adds freedom to your life.

This is done through a Dongle - a small plastic stick that sticks in the side of your PC. They used to be expensive but now you can get them for free... see below.

Laptop Internet is another name for essentially the same thing. The difference is that now the Networks (Vodafone, 3, O2, etc) are getting so competitive, they are all offering free laptops with their Mobile Internet packages. There is are no cash-back vouchers to claim and you get to keep the laptop forever - these are a great deal, but some are better than others.

So, here are the 3 tips I think you really should know:

1. Beware! Every Mobile Broadband package has a data allowance - usually between 1 and 15GB per month. If you go over, you get charged but here's the kicker no one knows about. If you use it outside the European Union you get charged 6 per MB so that's 6000 for one GB of data! You can do a GB in a day! If you were to go New York for a long weekend you could come home to a 24,000 phone bill. These prices are with 3, and they are the second cheapest for abroad usage costs...

2. I went with 3 as they were the cheapest and best value. However, don't do what i did and get the 15GB for 15 deal.

For 2.50 per month more you can get a brand spanking proper laptop worth 300 or 400. Considering you could replace your land line and existing broadband for this price and get a new laptop as well, it might be worth looking at.

3. 3 came out as the big winners in the Broadband Expert 2008 Mobile Broadband Awards:

In the awards, 3 Mobile Broadband won:

So, if you're going to get mobile Internet get it from 3 as they have won the most awards. Also make sure you get a free laptop with it. As 3 won the award for best laptop offer as well, that works out pretty well.

Best Laptop Deal,

If you see a deal and you like it, get it while you can as '3' laptop broadband stock comes and goes pretty quickly. Also I personally believe due to the UK debt and economic situation a significant devaluation of the pound is inevitable if not imminent, so I'm buying my imported electronics and laptops now while I can get the most value for my money. - 33374
