Antony Mayfield of Open has put together some thoughts on his dongle experience so far. Part of this was whilst commuting on the Hove to London train line and, despite connection issues during the journey, this has not stopped the self-confessed Curb You Enthusiasm fan thinking that the 3 dongle is pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, good.

His review is long and detailed, covering all aspects of his train ride and the problems encountered. He compares it to his usual dongle from Vodafone, a comparison he continues while talking in more general terms about the advantages the 3 service offers with regard to contract lengths.

Although his review does concentrate on problems that arose it is worth finishing with the introduction to his article for those wanting an quick overview, “This is a long review, but the upshot is: 3 dongle not as good on trains as Vodafone, but 3 = mobile hero and has better contracts.” 3, a mobile hero, sounds good to me.
