What is the point of having a Windows Mobile phone with 3G/HSDPA and full web browsing capability if you can't use them without a fear of being overcharged? The same with UMPCs, mini-notebooks and other notebooks....

One thing worth noting is that if you find you have no coverage they are more than happy to take the device back and give you a refund.

I didn't get the money back from my "top-up" though, which meant I paid £10 for about 200Kb

I had coverage of 3 network even in totally rural locations like 2 miles from Stonehenge

I had none in a semi-urban area.

No network has perfect coverage, but it's good that they'll take it back if it doesn't work for you

Ummmm, what do you mean 'Mobile Broadband over cellular networks (at last) arrived to UK!!' - they've been out a good long time, and have recently been discounted form £99 to about £69 PAYG as they are slow sellers according to 3. Are you getting sponserd by '3' for this?

Orange 3G is £5 a week unlimited download so works out better value for me, but I do also have a 3 dongle shared over a network using the USB port of a Draytek Vigor wireless router in my office.

And I have done so for about a year! So how is this news?!?!
